[BITList] Father O'Malley

[John Feltham]

THE IRISH PRIEST

An Irish priest was transferred to Texas .. Father O'Malley rose from  
his bed one morning. It was a fine spring day in his new Texas mission  
parish.

He walked to the window of his bedroom to get a deep breath of the  
beautiful day outside.

He then noticed there was a jackass lying dead in the middle of his  
front lawn.

He promptly called the local police station......

The conversation went like this:

''Good morning. This is Sergeant Jones. How might I help you?''

''And the best of the day te yerself.. This is Father O'Malley at St.  
Ann 's Catholic Church. There's a jackass lying dead in me front lawn "

Sergeant Jones, considering himself to be quite a wit, replied with a  
smirk, ''Well now Father, it was always my impression that you people  
took care of the last rites!''

There was dead silence on the line for a long  
moment........................................

Father O'Malley then replied: ''Aye, 'tis certainly true; but we are  
also obliged to notify the next of kin.''
