WHISTLING ON SUNDAY
GEORGE'S FATHER WAS A PRESBYTERIAN. ONE SUNDAY WHILE
AT CHURCH, THE PREACHER TOLD THEM NEVER TO WHISTLE ON
SUNDAY OR THEY WOULD RISE UP INTO THE SKIES. ONE
TIME GEORGE'S FATHER CAUGHT HIMSELF OFF GUARD AND HE
WHISTLED ON SUNDAY. HE BECAME SO AFRAID THAT HE
CAUSED HIM TO BECOME AN AGNOSTIC.
