Redneck Lent

Each Friday night after work, Bubba would fire up his outdoor grill and cook a venison steak.

But, all of Bubba's neighbors were Catholic. And since it was Lent, they were forbidden from eating meat on Friday.
*
The delicious aroma from the grilled venison steaks was causing such a problem for the Catholic faithful that they finally talked to their priest. The Priest came to visit Bubba, and suggested that he become a Catholic.
*
After several classes and much study, Bubba attended Mass...and as the priest sprinkled holy water over him, he said, 'You were born a Baptist, and raised a Baptist, but now you are a Catholic.
*
Bubba's neighbors were greatly relieved, until Friday night arrived, and the wonderful aroma of grilled venison filled the neighborhood.
*
The Priest was called immediately by the neighbors, and, as he Rushed into Bubba's yard, clutching a rosary and prepared to scold him, he stopped and watched in amazement.
*
There stood Bubba, clutching a small bottle of holy water which he carefully sprinkled over the grilling meat and chanted:
*
You wuz born a deer, you wuz raised a deer, but now you is a Catfish.

TFF, Tall Cat -- LOVED IT!!!
