Dick: Not going to church? Why, what’s the reason?
Tom: I’m sore at the minister.
Dick: What about?
Tom: When my brother died the minister said he had gone to join the great majority.
Dick: Well, what’s wrong with that? That’s simply an expression: “Gone to join the great majority.”
Tom: Yes, but two weeks ago he said that more people went down below than there were up above. Wouldn’t that jingle your small change?
Dick: I understand your brother was a hard drinker?
Tom: Yes; his habits were a little moist.
Dick: Moist?
Tom: Yes, he kept pretty well soaked.
