A distinguished young woman on a flight from Switzerland asked the Priest
beside her, "Father, may I ask a favor?" "Of course. What may I do for
you?" "Well, I bought an expensive woman's electronic hair dryer for my
mother's birthday. The dryer is unopened and well over the Customs limits
and I'm afraid they'll confiscate it. Is there any way you could 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 reached the Customs area, 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
marvelous instrument designed to be used on a woman, but which is, to date,
unused." Roaring with laughter, the official said, "Go ahead, Father."
"Next!"
