driving

A seventeen-year-old boy had just passed his driving test and inquired of his father as to when they could discuss using the car, and the father offered his son the following deal.

“You bring your grades up from a C to a B average, study your Bible a little, and get your hair cut. Then we will talk about the car.”

The boy thought about it for a moment, decided he’d settle for the offer, and they agreed on it.

Six weeks later his father said, “Son, you've brought your grades up, and I've observed that you have been studying your Bible, but I’m disappointed you haven’t cut your hair.”

The boy said, “You know, Dad, I've been thinking about that, and I’ve noticed in my studies of the Bible that Moses had long hair, Samson had long hair, John the Baptist had long hair, and there’s even strong evidence that Jesus had long hair.”

“Did you also notice they all walked everywhere they went?”
