Whom Shall I Send: "Not I" Said The Fly

You may remember the girls and I recently had a conversation about being missionaries to Africa.

On the way to the ballpark today, in the backseat, the topic came up once again ...this time with a little less compassion and slightly more commentary.

AR: You know, I REALLY want to go to Africa.

AG: Why? You KNOW you're gonna burn up.

AR: Really?

AG: Yeah, it's terribly hot there, AND everyone is naked.

AR: (silently stunned)

AG: (in confident continuation)Yeah, they just wear cloths...well, the men don't wear shirts and they just wear cloths instead of underwear.

AR: What about the ladies?

AG: Oh, they wear cloths all over; they are more modest than the men... NOT like here, in our country, where the men are more modest than the women!
