." A New York woman was at her hairdresser's getting her hair styled prior to a trip to Rome. "Rome?” says the hairdresser, “Why would anyone want to go there? It's crowded & dirty and full of Italians. You're crazy to go to Rome.” "So, how are you getting there?"
"We're taking Continental," was the reply. "
!" "Continental?" exclaimed the hairdresser. "That's a terrible airline. Their planes are old, their flight attendants are ugly, & they're always late.”
“ So, where are you staying in Rome?"
"We'll be at this exclusive little place called Teste..."
" I know that place. It's really a dump, the worst hotel in the city! The rooms are small, the service is surly & they're overpriced.
”So, whatcha doing when you get there?"
"We're going to go to see the Vatican & we hope to see the Pope."
The hairdresser laughed, "You & a million other people trying to see him. He'll look the size of an ant. Boy, good luck on this lousy trip of yours. You're going to need it."
A month later, the woman again came in for a hairdo. The hairdresser asked, ”How was the trip?”
"Wonderful," explained the woman, "not only were we on time in one of Continentals’ brand new planes, but it was overbooked & they bumped us up to first class. The food & wine were wonderful, & I had a handsome 28-year-old steward who waited on me hand & foot. And the hotel just finished a $5million remodeling job & now it's just a jewel, finest hotel in the city. They, too, were overbooked & gave us their owner's suite at no extra charge!"
"Well," muttered the hairdresser, "I know you didn't get to see the Pope."
"Actually, as we toured the Vatican, a Swiss Guard tapped me on the shoulder & explained that the Pope likes to personally meet some of the visitors & if I'd be so kind as to step into his private room and wait. Sure enough, five minutes later, the Pope walked through the door & shook my hand! I knelt down & he spoke a few words to me."
"Really?" asked the hairdresser. "What'd he say?"
He said, "Where'd you get the sh!tty hairdo?
