I'm an open theist, and one Calvinist I know thought he was pretty clever when we happened to visit a local bookstore at the same time, and he said to me, "Hey, God and I have something in common - neither of us knew you were going to be here!"
I have one I made up some time ago, and I think it's pretty risque, but somehow a lot of people get a chuckle out of it. It has 2 parts:
What did the Satan-worshipper plead to the court in defense of his serial murders? "The Devil made me do it!"
What did the Calvinist plead to the court in defense of his serial murders? "The Lord Jesus pre-ordained me to do it!"
bDM!ksh
Interestingly enough, I remember reading that when the guy who tried to assassinate Pope John Paul heard that the Pope went public on the Fatima prophecies saying that they declared there would be an assassination attempt on his life, the assassin tried to appeal his conviction by saying he was not responsible since it was pre-ordained by God.

one of my friends posted this on facebook. I don't know if he made it up or not and thus it has already been posted, but I thought it is was pretty funny.
P.S. sorry if your here only for the serious posts.

How many open theists does it take to change a light bulb?
No one knows until it happens.
