Many years before the popularity of Florida as a winter resort, John D Rockefeller was in the habit of spending his winters at Augusta, Georgia.
While there he always attended the coloured Baptist church the first Sunday of his stay, and the white Episcopal and Methodist churches the following two Sundays. The Methodist minister, intrigued by the invariable schedule, once asked the Baptist preacher if he knew Why Mr Rockefeller always visited his church first.
“Why, that is easy”, replied the preacher.
“You Methodists burn electricity, the Episcopalians use gas, but we burn kerosene oil.”

Are you a reformed drunkard?”
That American revivalist, Dwight Moody, once passed through a large crowd in a Chicago railway station distributing tracts on temperance.
One of those to receive this material was a benign elderly gentleman who glanced at the paper in his hand and peered quizzically at Moody.
“Are you a reformed drunkard?” He asked.
“No, sir, I am not! “cried Moody in indignation.
Then, answered the old gentleman, “Why don’t you reform?”

Who was Cain’s
wife?
Billy Sunday, the ‘rootin, tooting’ , saw dust trail
evangelist, was-once interrupted in his harangue by a heckler, who shouted the
question, then famous in all agnostic or atheists circles,
“Who was Cain’s wife?”
Billy Sunday shot back the reply,
“I respect any seeker of knowledge, but I want to warn you,
young man, don’t risk being lost to salvation by too much inquiring after other
men’s wives”.

A missionary told how she was once describing the loving
character of the Christians’ god to a company of her Chinese sisters. As she
went on in her holy enthusiasm, picturing gods real as character as full of
mercy to the sinful and suffering, one of the Chinese women turned to her
neighbor and said,
“Haven’t I often told you there ought to be a god like that”?.

UTTANKA was disciple of Veda. He suggested to king Janamejaya to avenge the death of king Parikshit at the hand of Naga chief Takshaka. His tory is in the Adi Parva and Asvamedhika Parva of Mahabharata.
A brahmin by name Veda had three disciples and one of them was Uttanka. When Uttanka completed his studies at the Gurukulam, he wanted to give his Master the ‘Guru dakshina’. So before taking leave of him, he asked what fee he might give him for his teaching. The master left the choice of Guru Dakshina (fee for the teacher) to his wife. She asked him to get the earrings of the queen, the consort of King Paushya. Guru’s wife told him to get them within three days so that she can wear it in the festival that is going to take place on the fourth day.
Uttanka on his way saw a huge bull and mounted on it. When he requested the queen to give him the earrings she readily gave them with a warning, “Beware of the Naga Chief Takshaka. He was desperate to get them”.
Uttanka assured her that no one could harm him. On his way he saw a naked ascetic who was visible some time and invisible other time. He thought that there wouldn’t be any danger to the earrings from the ascetic and placed them on the bank of a river and went to perform ablution.
Meanwhile the ascetic drew near him in great speed and ran away with the ear rings. Uttanka also pursued him with great speed. When Uttanka caught that person he showed his true form -Takshaka Naga- the Serpent King. Suddenly he went into a hole on the ground and returned to Naga Loka.
When Uttanka tried to enter the hole, he couldn’t enter it. At last Indra sent his thunder bolt and split it open. Uttanka went inside and saw huge buildings, palaces and pavlions. etc. After singing lot of praises, he got back the ear rings and gave them to Guru’s wife right on time.
Then Uttanka went to Hastinapura and met King Janamejaya, He asked the king to do a Serpent Yajna and kill all the Nagas because Takshaka was the one who bit and killed Parikshit, father of Janamejaya.
In the Asvamedha Parva, Krishna also played a role in the story. May be it is a later addition. But there is some interesting geographical information. This version says that Uttanka lived in a desert and whenever Krishna came there it rained heavily in the desert. So even today the clouds seen in the desert are called Uttanka clouds!
