I already know this. ROMAN NUMERALS Jane I don't get it. #IDunno# ***** ROMAN NUMERALS The last name (NUMERALS) has eight letters while the given name (ROMAN) has five letters. Using all the numerals (MDCLXVI) gives 1,666. C (in Cow) is the first numeral in the alphabet while X (in oXen) is the last numeral in the alphabet. Three of the seven numerals are found in damsel ( Da Mse L). Three of the seven numerals are also found in vixen ( VIXen). ***** I know this because I came across this riddle when I was helping my nephew with his homework about riddles. ;D Jane

This one was emailed to me by Barb.
***** Forgive Your Enemies
Sunday's sermon was:
Forgive Your Enemies
Toward the end of the service, the Minister asked, "How many of you have forgiven your enemies?"
80% held up their hands.
The Minister then repeated his question.
All responded this time, except one small elderly lady.
"Mrs. Jones? " Are you not willing to forgive your enemies?"
"I don't have any." She replied, smiling sweetly.
"Mrs. Jones, that is very unusual. How old are you?"
"Ninety-eight" she replied.
"Oh Mrs. Jones, would you please come down in front and tell us all how a person can live ninety-eight years and not have an enemy in the world?"
The little sweetheart tottered down the aisle, faced the congregation, and said:
"I outlived the b*tches."

During class, a teacher trying to teach good manners, asks the students,
"Michael, if you were on a date, having supper with a nice young lady, how would you tell her that you have to go to the bathroom?"
"Just a minute, I have to go pee."
Teacher: "That would be rude and impolite! "What about you Peter, how would you say it?"
"I am sorry , but I really need to go to the bathroom, I'll be right back."
Teacher: "That's better, but it's still not very nice to say the word bathroom at the dinner table."
Teacher: "And you Little Johnny, are you able to use your intelligence for once and show us your good manners?"
I would say: 'Darling, may I please be excused for a moment? I have to shake hands with a very dear friend of mine, whom I hope you'll get to meet after supper.
