Jesus went to the job centre looking for employment. The advisor said "I have two jobs I think might be suitable for you. Both are for carpenters. One is in Edinburgh; the other in Jerusalem."
"That sounds promising," said Jesus. "I think I shall go for the job in Edinburgh"
"But wouldn't the job in Jerusalem be better for you?" the advisor asked, "It's closer to where you live."
"oh, I've worked there before," replied Jesus "and I got hammered with tax!" (tacks)

I don't consider anything in it to be offensive but looking a some harmless posts that have been reported in recent months, I have come to the conclusion that if you posted "Good Morning" somebody would take offence :-(

Researching:
I am researching the Wotherspoon family from the Old/New Monkland areas of Scotland, some moved to the Leslie and Kelty areas of Fife and I'm having problems linking the Wotherspoon's from Leslie and the Wotherspoon's from Kelty. I am also researching the Clusker family from Co. Meath in Ireland who moved to West Lothian and from there to Fife............"Vita non est vivere sed valere vita est"

A man, his wife and his mother-in-law went on vacation to the Holy Land. While they were there, the mother-in-law passed away.

The undertaker told them, you can have her shipped home for £5,000, or you can bury her here in the Holy Land for £150.

The man thought about it and told him he would prefer to have her shipped home.

The undertaker asked, why would you spend £5,000 to ship your mother-in-law home, when it would be wonderful to have her buried here in the Holy Land for only £150?

The man replied, a man died here 2,000 years ago, was buried here, and three days later he rose from the dead......................................................












I am not prepared to take that chance!!!
