first day

[NumeroUno]

A Priest was being honored at his retirement dinner after 25 years in the parish.

A leading local politician and member of the congregation was chosen to make the presentation and to give a little speech at the dinner.

However, the politician was delayed, so the Priest decided to say his own few words while they waited. "I got my first impression of the parish from the first confession I heard here. I thought I had been assigned to a terrible place."

"The very first person who entered my confessional told me she had stolen a television set and, when questioned by the police, was able to lie her way out of it. She had stolen money from her parents, embezzled from her employer, had an affair with her boss's wife, taken illegal drugs, and gave VD to her brother."

"I was appalled. But as the days went on I learned that my people were not all like that and I had, indeed, come to a fine parish full of good and loving people."

Just as the Priest finished his talk, the politician arrived full of apologies at being late. She immediately began to make the presentation and gave her talk.

"I'll never forget the first day our parish Priest arrived," said the politician. "In fact, I had the honor of being the very first person to go to him for confession."





Could this have been Nancy Pelosi?
