At the head of the serving line was a large pile of apples. One of the nuns made a sign by the apples that said: "Take only one, God is watching."

Little Johnny saw the sign, then found a piece of paper, made a sign of his own and placed it at the other end of the serving line, in front of a large pile of chocolate chip cookies. It said: "Take all you want, God is watching the apples."

Trivia answer....

Teddy Roosevelt found his favorite dog, Skip, wandering around the Grand Canyon. While Roosevelt had many dogs, Skip was the only one permitted to sleep in the presidential bed.

Probably the most famous Rat Terrier owner in American history was Teddy Roosevelt, whose loyal companion, Skip, helped rid the White House of a rat infestation. Skip was a perfect pet for Roosevelt, who engaged in a vigorous lifestyle. While mere humans often found it hard to keep up with the robust president, Skip reveled in his owner's high activity level and hunting prowess.
