On the
Funny
Side
Joe and Derek were employed to externally
repaint a small community church. Being on
the cheap side, they pinched and scraped to
spend the absolute minimum on materials.
When they were only part way through the
job, they determined that they didn’t after
all, have enough paint to complete the job.
Not wishing to spend any more money,
they decided they would just dilute the
water-based paint they were using so that
it would go further.
They repeated this a couple more times
before they finished, which caused a fading
effect on the church as the paint got thinner.
The painters had just about gotten to the top
of the steeple, when, all of a sudden the sky
darkened, and the rain started to pour down.
As the paint streamed down the sides of the
church, a voice boomed from the heavens:
“Repaint, you thinners! Repaint, and thin
no more!”
