A Joke a day keeps the doctor away! (22-01-13)
I remember the joke I once heard in school back in the days. Who am I?
It's the joke of a young man who had written BK/CRS (Bible Knowledge/Christian
Religious Studies) so many times without success. From experience he realized
that there was one question that was often repeated, 'Critically analyze the
life and times of John the Baptist.' So, for the next exams, he crammed everything about John the Baptist. But, alas on the exam
day, the question was not what he expected, 'Critically analyze the life and
times of Jesus Christ'. He was surprised but not out. He has to download the stuff he's crammed about John the Baptist. Being the smart guy that he was, he
wrote, "Who am I to criticize our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ? I will
rather criticize his servant John the Baptist..." So he went on pouring his stuff
on John the Baptist. The first time I heard d joke, I laughed so hard. Hence, I
remember that early morning in the theatre years ago when and where Dr Ehigiegba entertained
us with that joke. I certainly don't remember the surgery or the stuff that
went with it but I do remember that joke... On a serious note, as I go about my
tasks, I ask myself this rhetorical question, 'Who am I?'
