Did the priest lie??
A distinguished young woman on a flight from
Ireland asked the Priest beside her: “Father,
may I ask a favor?”
Priest: “Of course. What may I do for you?
Woman: “Well, I bought an expensive woman’s
electronic hair dryer for my mother’s birthday
that is unopened and well over the Customs
limits, and I’m afraid they’ll confiscate it. Is
there any way you could carry it through
Customs for me……….. Under your robe
perhaps?”
Priest: “I would love to help you, dear, but I
must warn you: I will not lie.”
Woman: “With your honest face, Father, no
one will question you.”
When they got to Customs, she let the priest
go ahead of her.
Custom Officer: “Father, do you have anything
to declare?”
Priest: “From the top of my head down to my
waist, I have nothing to declare. ”
The official thought this answer strange.
Custom Officer: “And what do you have to
declare from your waist to the floor?”
Priest: “I have a marvelous instrument
designed to be used on a woman, but which
is, to date, unused.”
Custom Officer: (Roaring with laughter, said)
“Go ahead Father.” Next!
