A priest decides to take a walk to the pier near his church. He looks
around and finally stops to watch a fisherman load his boat. The
fisherman notices, and asks the priest if he would like to join him for
a couple of hours. The priest agrees.
The fisherman asks if the
priest has ever fished before to which the priest says no. He baits the
hook for him and says, "Give it a shot father". After a few minutes,
the priest hooks a big fish and struggles to get it in the boat. The
fisherman says "Whoa, what a big son-of-a-bitch!"
The Priest
says, "Uh, please sir, can you mind your language?" The fisherman,
thinking quickly, responds, "I'm sorry Father, but that's what this
fish is called - a son-of-a-bitch!"
"Oh, I'm sorry", replied the
Priest. "I didn't know." After the trip, the priest brings the fish to
the church and spots the Bishop. "Eminence, look at this big
son-of-a-bitch!"
"Please, Father", said the Bishop. "Mind your language, this is a house of God."
"No, you don't understand", said the Priest. "That's what this fish is called, and I caught it. I caught this son-of-a-bitch!"
"Hmmm",
said the Bishop. "You know, I could clean this son-of-a-bitch and we
could have it for dinner." So the Bishop takes the fish and cleans it,
and brings it to Mother Superior at the convent. "Mother Superior,
could you cook this son-of-a-bitch for dinner tonight?"
"My lord, what language!", said the Mother Superior.
"No,
Sister", said the Bishop. "That's what the fish is called - a
son-of-a-bitch! Father caught it, I cleaned it, and we'd like you to
cook it."
"Hmmm", replied Mother Superior. "Yes, I'll cook that
son-of-a-bitch tonight." Well, the Pope stops by for dinner with the
three of them, and they all think the fish is great. He asks where they
got it. "I caught the son-of-a-bitch!", said the Priest.
"And I cleaned the son-of-a-bitch!", said the Bishop.
"And I cooked the son-of-a-bitch!", said the Mother Superior.
The
Pope stares at them for a minute with a steely gaze, but then takes off
his hat, puts his feet up on the table, and says, "You know, you
fuckers are alright."
