Calling the Last Rites

A man is struck by a bus on a busy street in New York City. He lies dying on the sidewalk as a crowd of spectators gathers around. "A priest! Somebody get me a priest!" the man gasps. A policeman checks the crowd but finds no priest, no minister, no man of God of any kind.

"A PRIEST, PLEASE!" the dying man says again. Then out of the crowd steps a little old Jewish man of at least eighty years of age."Mr. Policeman," says the man, "I'm not a priest. I'm not even a Catholic. But for fifty years now I'm living behind St. Mary's Catholic Church on Third Avenue, and every night I'm listening to the Catholic litany. Maybe I can be of some comfort to this man."

The policeman agrees and brings the octogenarian over to the dying man. He kneels down, leans over the injured and says in a solemn voice: "B - 4. I - 19. N - 38. G - 54. O - 72."

There was a man who went into a cave and found a big box labeled "One Million gems". A rich came over and saw the gems so he asked the man if he could buy them all. The man said yes and told the rich man that each gem was one dollar. So the man poured all the gems into a large bag and gave them to the rich man. The rich man looked into the bag and paid the man $999,999 and left. How did the man know there was one gem missing? (No he was not psychic)
