Emphasis Preaching Journal

Dave is awakened by a rat-a-tat-tat on the door. He rolls over and looks at his clock, and it's half past three in the morning. "I'm not getting out of bed at this time," he thinks, and rolls over. Then, a louder knock follows. "Aren't you going to answer that?" says his wife. So Dave drags himself out of bed. He opens the door and there is a man standing on the porch. It didn't take the homeowner long to realize the man was drunk.

"Hi, there," slurs the stranger. "Can you give me a push?" "No, get lost. It's half past three. I was in bed," Dave shouts and slams the door.
