Subject: Fwd: a jim crow prayer

  Back in the early days of steam ships, a ship of rich white people sailed
at sea. All of a sudden something happened to the ship and it was about to
sink.  Terrified, the people aboard didn't know what to do.  Someone
suggested they do what the Negroes did......pray. But unfortunately, no one
knew what to say. So they called upon Titanus, a black cook on the ship and
asked him to pray. Titanus agreed and came up on deck to pray. He started
like this:  "Lord on a day of hunger, I went to a restaurant to get
something to eat and the sign said:  FOR WHITE FOLKS ONLY. I went to a water
fountain to get water and the sign said: FOR WHITE FOLKS ONLY. Then Lord, I
went to the restroom to take a s--t and the sign said: FOR WHITE FOLKS ONLY.
  So Lord Almighty, when this motherf----r sinks, Let it be FOR WHITE FOLKS
ONLY......AMEN."
