> That story about the pastor jumping off the platform reminds me of a joke:
>
> A young pastor was preparing a sermon. He was afraid that his mind might go
> blank and he wouldn't remember what to say. An older pastor advised him to
> just repeat what he said before the memory lapse and emphasize it. Sure
> enough, his mind went blank during this sermon, and, standing back a little
> from the pulpit and stepping forward, he repeated this sentence: "Behold, I
> come quickly!" Still, he couldn't think of what to say next. He stepped
> farther back from the pulpit and moved toward it more quickly. Again, he
> said, "Behold, I come quickly!" Still, he was lost. He backed even farther
> away from the pulpit, ran toward it, and crashed into it, spilling books,
> bibles and papers. He fell head first into a lady's lap.
>
> "Oh, oh, I'm so so sorry! I'm so sorry!" he cried.
>
> "That's okay," she said, "You warned me three times."
