A young woman on a flight from Ireland asked the priest beside
her,
' Father, may I ask a favour? '
' Of course child. What can I do for you? '
' Well, I bought an expensive woman ' s electric 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 carr but y It through customs for
me? Under your robes perhaps
' I would love to help you, dear, but I must warn you: I will not lie. '
' With your honest face, Father, no one will question you. '
When they got to customs, she let the priest go ahead of her.
The official asked, ' Father, do you have anything to declare? '
' >From the top of my head down to my waist, I have nothing to declare. '
The official thought this answer strange, so he asked, ' And what do you
have to declare from your waist to the floor? '
' I have a marvellous instrument designed to be used on
a woman, but which is, to date, unused. '
Roaring with laughter, the official said, ' Go ahead, Father.
Next! '
