The Priest
Published by James E on Thursday, August 31, 2006.
The priest in a small Irish village loved the rooster and ten hens he kept in the hen house behind the church.
One Sunday morning, before mass we went to feed the birds and discovered that the cock was missing.
He knew about cock fighting in the village, so he questioned his parishioners in Church. During Mass he asked the congregation, "Has anyone got a cock?"
All the men stood up.
"No No" he said, "that wasn't what I meant. Has anyone seen a cock?"
All the women stood up.
"No No" he said "that wasn't what I meant. Has anybody seen a cock that doesn't belong to them?"
Half the women stood up.
"No No" he said that wasn't what I meant. Has anybody seen my cock?"
Sixteen altar boys, two priests and a goat stood up.
