A pastor's son wanted his dad to buy him a car for a graduation gift. His father said, "I'll buy you a car, but first you must do three things:

1) Go to college and get B's or better for the first semester,

2) read your Bible every day, and

3) cut your hair." (For the boy had very long hair.)

The son agreed, and off to school he went. Three months later, the son returned home all smiles. He said to his father, "Dad, here's my report card - all A's! And I read my Bible every day, just like you asked!"

After a long pause, the father said, "Yes, but son, you didn't cut your hair." "Well, Dad, I was reading the Bible, you know, and I realized that Jesus - He had long hair!"

To which his father said, "Yes, He did.

And He walked everywhere he went."
