falling down

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.
