The Usher

The  Usher  

An  elderly woman walked into the local country church.

The friendly usher greeted her at the door and helped her up the flight of steps.

"Where would you like to sit?" he asked  politely.

"The front row, please," she answered.

"You really don't want to do  that," the usher said. "The pastor is really boring."

"Do you happen to know who I am?"  the woman inquired.

"No," he said.

"I'm  the pastor's mother," she replied indignantly.

"Do you know who I am?" he asked.

"No,"  she said.

"Good," he answered.
