Each Friday night after work Bubba would fire up his outdoor grill and cook
a venison steak.
But all of Bubba’s neighbors were Catholic. And since it was Lent, they
were forbidden from eating any meat other than fish on Friday.
The delicious aroma from the grilled venison steaks was causing such a
problem for the Catholic faithful that they finally talked to their priest.
The Priest came to visit Bubba and suggested that he become a Catholic.
After several classes and much study, Bubba attended Mass…and as the
priest sprinkled holy water over him he said, “You were born a Baptist, and

Bubba’s neighbors were greatly relieved until Friday night arrived and the
wonderful aroma of grilled venison filled the neighborhood.

Bubba’s yard, prepared to scold him, he stopped and watched in amazement.
There stood Bubba. He was clutching a small bottle of holy water, which he
carefully sprinkled over the grilling meat as he chanted: "You wuz born a
deer, you wuz raised a deer, but now you is a catfish.
