Church Visit ...

Just moved to town, Gladys Dunn decided that the first Sunday she'd visit the church nearest to her new apartment.

She found herself in a pretty sanctuary, and as the service began, she enjoyed the music offered by the choir. But when the sermon began, it went on and on and on. In fact it was without substance and not at all interesting.

Glancing around, she noticed that many in the congregation were nodding off, not even trying to stay awake.

Finally it was over, though, and people stood up for the final hymn. After the service, to be social, she turned to the still sleepy looking gentleman next to her, extended her hand in greeting, and said, "Hello, I'm Gladys Dunn."

The gentleman replied, "You and me both!"
