The Hairdryer

I came across this joke, and thought it hilarious. There are a number of Priests I know who would be likely to come out with such witticisms, though, of course, they wouldn’t dream of using them for such nefarious purposes.

The Hairdryer

A young woman on a plane from America asked a Priest sitting beside her, “Father, may I ask a favour?”

“Of course. What may I do for you?”

“Well, I purchased an expensive Electronic hairdryer that is well over the Customs limits and I’m afraid they’ll confiscate it. Is there anyway you would carry it through customs for me? Under your robes perhaps?”

“I would love to help you, dear, but I must warn you: I will not lie.”

“With your honest face, Father, no one will question you.”

When they got to Customs, she let the priest go ahead of her. The official asked, “Father, do you have anything to declare?”

“From the top of my head down to my waist, I have nothing to declare.”

The official thought this answer strange, so asked, “And what do you have to declare from your waist to the floor?”

“I have a marvellous little instrument designed to be used on a woman, but which is, to date, unused.”

Roaring with laughter, the official said, “Go ahead, Father”
