"Long Sermon"
One Sunday a cowboy went to church. When
he entered, he saw that he and the preacher
were the only ones present. The preacher
asked the cowboy if he wanted him to go
ahead and preach.
The cowboy said, "I'm not too smart, but if I
went to feed my cattle and only one showed
up, I'd feed him."
So the minister began his sermon.
One hour passed, then two hours, then
two-and-a-half hours. The preacher finally
finished and came down to ask the cowboy
how he liked the sermon.
The cowboy answered slowly, "Well, I'm not
very smart, but if I went to feed my cattle and
only one showed up, I sure wouldn't feed him
all the hay..."
