This minister had just had all of his remaining teeth pulled and new dentures were being made.

The first Sunday, he only preached 10 minutes.

The second Sunday, he preached only 20 minutes.

But, on the third Sunday, he preached 1 hour, 25 minutes. When asked about this by some of the congregation, he responded this way.....

The first Sunday, my gums were so sore it hurt to talk.

The second Sunday, my mouth was healing nicely.

The third Sunday, I accidentally grabbed my wife's dentures...

AND I COULDN'T STOP TALKING!
