[BITList] Father O'Malley

[John Feltham]

Father O'Malley rose from his bed one morning.   It was a fine spring day in his new Washington D.C. 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 donkey lying dead in the  middle of his front lawn.    He promptly called the White House.    The conversation went like this: 

"Good morning. This is Donald Trump,  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 donkey lying dead in me front lawn and would ye be so kind as to send a couple o'yer lads to take care of the matter?"    

Trump , considering himself to be quite a wit and recognizing the Irish accent, thought he would have a little fun with the  good father, replied.

"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 moment . . . .  Father O'Malley then replied:     "Aye,' tis certainly true; but we are also obliged to notify the next of kin first, which is the reason for me call.”
