Down in Kentucky, a character who identified himself simply as Joshua was
hauler up in court for making corn liquor in the woods. “Joshua?” mused
the judge, with a bit of a smile. “Are you the Joshua who caused the sun
to stand still?” “No suh,” declared the defending emphatically.
“I’se the
Joshua that made the moon shine.”

Back when I was young, we had a small grocery store next to our house. I had swallowed a penny, and it went all the way through me. I kept it and when I bought something at the store and gave the lady my change, I told her the history of the penny.
