Bless me Father, for I have sinned. I have been with a loose woman."
Priest asks "Is that you, little Timmy Shaughnessy?"
"Yes, Father, it is"
"And, who was the woman you were with?"
"I can't be tellin' you Father. I don't want to ruin her reputation."
"Well, Timmy, I'm sure to find out sooner or later, so you may as well
tell me now"
Was it Brenda O'Malley?"
"I cannot say," Timmy replied.
"Was it Patricia Kelly?"
"I'll never tell."
"Was it Sheilah O'Brien?"
"I'm sorry, but I cannot name her"
"Was it Kathleen Morgan?"
"My lips are sealed."
"Was it Fiona Grogan, then"
"Please, Father, I cannot tell you."
The priest sighs in frustration.
"You're a steadfast lad, Timmy Shaughnessy, and I admire that. But
you've sinned
and you must atone. You cannot attend church Mass for three months.
Be off with you now"
Timmy walks back to his pew.
His friend, Sean, slides over and whispers "What'd you get?"
"THREE MONTH'S VACATION AND FIVE GOOD LEADS."
