There was an old priest who got sick of all the people in his parish who kept confessing adultery. One Sunday,
from the pulpit, he said, "If I hear one more person
confess to adultery, I'll quit!"
Well, everyone liked him, so they came up with a code
word. Someone who had committed adultery would say they
had "fallen".
This seemed to satisfy the old priest and things went
well, until the priest died at a ripe old age. About
a week after the new priest arrived, he visited the
Mayor of the town and seemed very concerned.
The priest said, "You have to do something about the
sidewalks in town. When people come to the confessional,
they keep talking about having 'fallen'."
The Mayor started to laugh, realizing that no one had
told the new priest about the code word.
Before the mayor could explain, the priest shook an
accusing finger at the mayor and said, "I don't know
what you're laughing about! Your wife fell three times
this week."

Nice one. I thought this was going to be a thread about the movie Falling Down, that joke helped ease my disappointment.
