FROM THE LAUGH TRACK
Three
Holy Men and a Bear - Aquino
A Priest, a Pentecostal Preacher
and a Rabbi all served as chaplains to the students of
Father Flannery, who has his arm
in a sling, is on crutches, and has various bandages on his body and limbs,
goes first. "Well," he says, "I went into the woods to find me
a bear. And when I found him I began to read to him from the Catechism. Well,
that bear wanted nothing to do with me and began to slap me around. So I
quickly grabbed my holy water, sprinkled him and, Holy Mary Mother of
Reverend Billy Bob spoke next. He
was in a wheelchair, with an arm and both legs in casts, and an IV drip. In
his best fire and brimstone oratory he claimed, " WELL
brothers, you KNOW that we don't sprinkle! I went out and I FOUND me a bear.
And then I began to read to my bear from God's HOLY WORD! But that bear
wanted nothing to do with me. So I took HOLD of him and we began to wrestle.
We wrestled down one hill, UP another and DOWN another until we came to a
creek. So I quickly DUNKED him and BAPTIZED his hairy soul. And just like you
said, he became as gentle as a lamb. We spent the rest of the day praying
The Priest and the Reverend both
looked down at the Rabbi, who was lying in a hospital bed. He was in a body
cast and traction with IV’s and monitors running in and out of him. He was in
real bad shape.
The Rabbi looks up and says,
"Looking back on it, circumcision may not have been the best way to
start."
