A "Church" theme is appearing...

Posted in Humor

...it is totally by accident, but I seem to have strated a slight theme this week.  Short of the word problems, there is this recurring appearence of faith, church and now a priest.  I guess you get what you need when you need it.  So no one is offeneded...I am Catholic, my best friend is from Ireland and my cousin is a cop (oh yea...my husband's side of the family is from Texas)...so I have ALL bases covered...enjoy! icart

BTW, thank you to everyone who has put us in their thoughts and prayers...I am a firm believer in "everything happens for a reason" ...even if we don't know what that reason is.  The house has been on the market for 6 months...I have watched and followed the advice of EVERY home selling show on TV...lowered my price (three times) and hired a new agent...keep those good thoughts coming this way! 

New Priest in Town
 -------------------------
 
A priest from Ireland was assigned to a Texas diocese.
 
One morning, Father O'Malley rose from his bed. It was a fine spring day
 in his new Texas mission parish. He walked to the window of his bedroom
 to get a deep breath of the beautiful day outside. He then noticed there
 was a jackass lying dead in the middle of his front lawn. He promptly
 called the local police station. The conversation went like this:
 
"Good morning, this is Sergeant Jones, how might I help you?"
 
"And the best of the day te yerself. This is Father O'Malley at St.
 Brigid's . There's a jackass lying dead in me front lawn. Would ye be so
 kind as to send a couple O yer lads to take care of the matter?"
 
Sergeant Jones, considering himself to be quite a wit, replied with a
 smirk, "Well now Father, it was always my impression that you people
 took care of last rites!"
 
There was dead silence on the line for a long moment.
 
Father O'Malley then replied: "Aye, 'tis certainly true, but we are also
 obliged to notify the next of kin."
