Man judges a person by his past deeds, and administers penalties for his wrongdoing. God judges a person by his present character, and disciplines him that he may become righteous.

A priest, a minister, and a rabbit walk into a bar.
The bartender says, "What'll you have?"
The rabbit says, "I don't know, I'm only here because of autocorrect."

I used to work at an orange juice factory, but I had to quit because I couldn't concentrate.

Paidion,

I was never a school teacher, but I was a pretty good speller. My dictionary says that "humour" is the middle English spelling, from 1150 A.D. to 1450 A.D.
Today, we spell it "humor".

Who is "we"?
"Humour" is the English spelling. I live in Canada (which originally was a colony of Britain)
"Humor" is the United States spelling.

Look it up in Wikipedia, and you will find the following sentence:
"Humour (Commonwealth English) or humor (American English) is the tendency of experiences to provoke laughter and provide amusement."
