Ten-year-old Jack wanted $300 for a new bike. He prayed for two weeks but nothing happened.

He then decided to write to God asking for the money. When the local postmaster saw his letter addressed to Dear God, Australia, he decided to send it to the prime minister’s office.

The PM was so impressed, touched and amused by Jack’s letter he told his secretary to send the boy $30 to help his fund-raising efforts.

Jack was delighted when he saw the letter from the prime minister with $30 cash. He immediately wrote a thank you letter to God. It read: “Dear God, thank you for sending the money. However, I noticed that for some reason you had to send it via Canberra. As usual, those untrustworthy crooks took most of the money.”

🤣😂

One day a local Catholic fisherman who had imbibed a few too many whiskeys to ward off the cold decided to try his luck on a frozen lake. He drilled a hole in the ice when a loud voice from above said, “There are no fish there.”

The man walked several metres and drilled another hole. Again, the voice boomed, “There are no fish there.”

Disillusioned but remaining determined, the man stumbled on for another ten metres and drilled another hole.

“I told you, there are no fish there.”

Finally, the fisherman looked skyward and said, “God, is that you?”

“No, you idiot,” the voice said. “I’m the skating rink manager.”
