Polly's Policy Bill's barn burned down, and his wife Polly called the insurance company.
Polly told the insurance company, "We had that barn insured for fifty thousand, and I want my money."

There was a long pause before Polly replied, "Then I'd like to cancel the policy on my husband."

be, Jesus
Cripes? The son of Gosh of the church of Holy Moly? I'm not
making fun
of it. You think I wanna burn in Heck?
