Love is a wonderful thing. It can also be a dangerous thing. I heard about the teenage boy who went into the drug store and asked the druggist for a 1 pound, 3 pound, and 5 pound box of candy. When the druggist asked him why he wanted 3 different boxes he said, "Tonight I have a date with the most beautiful girl in our school. She is so hot! I’ve been in love with her for years and I finally worked up enough nerve to ask her out and she said yes. Unfortunately our first date is having dinner with her parents. But after dinner, we’re going to go outside and sit in their porch swing and I have really high hopes about that. If before the night is out I get to hold her hand, I’m going to give her that 1 pound box of candy as a gift. But sir I must tell you, my goal for this night is much higher. If she lets me put my arm around her and hold her real tight, I’m going to give her that 3 pound box. But, if before our date ends, she lets me give her a big wet kiss right on her mouth, I’ll give her that 5 pound box of candy as a gift. Well the druggist sold him his 3 boxes of candy and the young man went home. In preparation for the date he did all the things a man, young or old, married or unmarried, should do before a date. He took a shower and used shampoo and soap. He brushed his teeth and used mouthwash. He put on deodorant and cologne, as well as nice clean clothes. After arriving at his date’s home and visiting for a while in the family room, they went into the dining room for dinner. The father asked the young man to say the blessing and boy did he. He prayed, 5 … 10 … 15 minutes for the meal! When he finished praying his date looked at him and said, "I had no idea you were so spiritual." The young man looked back at her and said, "Yes, and I had no idea your daddy was the druggist either!"
