Dorothy’s Place: Mountains Out of Molehills

Editor’s Note: Dorothy’s right arm is temporarily in a sling, but she did manage to one-finger left-hand hit the forward button to share this chuckle with you.
A man walks into the lingerie department of Macy’s in New York City. He tells the sales lady, “I would like a Lutheran bra for my wife, size–34B.”
With a quizzical look the saleslady asks, “What kind of bra?”
He repeats, “A Lutheran bra. My wife said to tell you that she wanted a Lutheran bra, and that you would know what she wanted.”
“Oh, yes, now I understand,” says the sales lady. “We don’t get as many requests for them as we used to. Most of our customers lately want the Catholic bra, the Salvation Army bra, or the Presbyterian bra.”
Confused, and a little flustered, the man asks, “So, what are the differences?”
The sales lady responds, “It’s really quite simple. The Catholic bra supports the masses. The Salvation Army bra lifts up the fallen. The Presbyterian bra keeps them staunch and upright.”
He muses on that information for a minute and says, “Hmm. I know I’ll regret asking, but what does the Lutheran bra do?”
“Ah,” she replies, “The Lutheran bra makes mountains out of molehills!”
