>   A very proper lady began planning a week's camping vacation for her and her
>Baptist Church group. She wrote to a campground for reservations. She wanted
>to make sure that the campground was fully equipped and modern but couldn't
>bring herself to write the word "toilet" in her letter.
>   So, she decided on the old-fashioned term "Bathroom Commode." Once written
>down she still was not comfortable. Finally she decided on the abbreviation
>"B.C." and wrote, "Does your campground have its own "B.C.?"
>   When the campground owner received the letter, he couldn't figure out what
>she meant by "B.C." He showed it to several of the campers, one of whom
>suggested the lady was obviously referring to a Baptist Church since there was
>letterhead on the paper which referred to a Baptist Church.
>   So he sent this reply...
>   Dear Madam:  The B.C. is located nine miles from the campground in a
>beautiful grove of trees. I admit it is quite a distance if you are 
>in the habit of
>going regularly.
>   No doubt you will be pleased to know that it will seat 350 people at one
>time, and it is open on Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday of each week. Some folks
>like to take their lunch and make a day of it.
>   The acoustics are very good, so everyone can hear even the quietest
>passages. It may interest you to know that my daughter met her 
>husband there. We are
>also having a fund-raiser to purchase new seats, as the old ones have holes in
>them.
>   Unfortunately my wife is ill and has not been able to attend 
> regularly. It's
>been a good six months since she last went. It pains her very much not to be
>able to go more often. As we grow older, it seems to be more of an effort,
>especially in cold weather.
>   Perhaps I could accompany you the first time you go, sit with you, and
>introduce you to all the other folks who will be there.
>   I look forward to your visit. We offer a very friendly campground.

>Now, that's a joke!
