What Did You Do To Deserve This?
The desk calendar I use at work occasionally includes some “interesting” quotations. One recent example – from no less a personage than Genghis Kahn – left me laughing:
I am the punishment of God… If you had not committed great sins, God would not have sent a punishment like me upon you.
I admit to being something of a wiseguy, so I showed this quotation to my co-worker Olive and asked, “Does this remind you of anyone you know?”
She laughed and replied, “Yes it does. But I’m an atheist.”
Olive paused for a moment and then added, “Oh. Do you think maybe that’s what I’m being punished for?”
