An elderly man was quite unhappy because he had lost his favorite hat.
Instead of buying a new one, he decided he would go to church
and swipe one out of the vestibule.
When he got there, an usher intercepted him at the door
and took him to a pew where he had to sit and listen
to the entire sermon on "The Ten Commandments."
After church, the man met the preacher in the vestibule doorway,
shook his hand vigorously, and told him,
"I want to thank you
preacher for saving my soul today.
I came to church to steal a hat and after hearing your sermon
on the 10 Commandments, I decided against it."
Preacher: "You mean the commandment "Thou shall not steal"
changed your mind?
Old Man: "No, the one about adultery did.
As soon as you said that,
I remembered where I left my old hat!"
