Up in heaven an angel saw him and reported it to Jesus. However, Jesus didn't do anything when he told him. "Aren't you going to punish him?" he asked Jesus. "Yes, just wait." he replied.

"Well, that's not a punishment!" the angel said in disgust.
"Who is he going to tell?"

A little Catholic kid was praying as hard as he could. 'God,' he prayed, 'I really want a car.' Jumping up and dashing to the window, he saw that the driveway was empty. 'God,' he prayed again, 'I really NEED a car.' Still no answer to his prayers. Suddenly the kid stood up, ran into his parents' bedroom, and grabbed the statuette of the Virgin Mary off the mantelpiece. He wrapped it up in ten layers of paper, using three rolls of tape and a spool of twine, then stuffed it inside a box at the very bottom of his closet. 'Okay, God,' he said, getting down onto his knees again, 'if you ever want to see your mother again...'
A young minister, in the first days of his first parish, was obliged to call upon the widow of an eccentric man who had just died.

Tommy goes into a confessional box and says, "Bless me father for I have sinned. I have been with a loose woman."
- Priest: Is that you, Tommy?
- Tommy: Yes father, it's me.
- Priest: Who was the woman you were with?
- Tommy: I cannot tell you, father, because I don't want to ruin her reputation.
- Priest: Was it Brenda O'Malley?
- Tommy: No, father.
- Priest: Was it Fiona MacDonald?
- Tommy: No.
- Priest: Was it Ann Brown?
- Tommy: No.
- Priest: Was it Mary Elizabeth O'Shea?
- Tommy: No, father.
- Priest: Was it Amy Thomas?
- Tommy: No, father.
- Priest: Was it little Cathy Morgan?
- Tommy: NO father! I cannot tell you.
- Priest: Tommy, I admire your perseverance, but you must atone for your sins. Your penance will be four 'Our Fathers' and five 'Hail Mary's'. Now go back to your seat.
Tommy walks back to his pew and his buddy Sean slides over and whispers, "What happened?!"
"Well, I got four Our Fathers, five Hail Marys, and six good leads."

A whole gaggle of Jewish ladies at a party were discussing the problem of one of their daughters, who looked very much as though she were planning to marry a Gentile boy. Everyone was disturbed about it, and I could not help interrupting.
"Why not?" said I. "Let her marry a Gentile boy. I'm all in favor of Jewish girls marrying Gentile boys."
"Why?" chorused the women.
And I said, "Because why should the Jewish boys have all the bad luck?"
