There was an old priest who got sick of all the people in his parish who
Kept confessing to adultery. One Sunday, in the pulpit, he said, "If I hear
One more person confess to adultery, I'll quit!"
Well, everyone liked him, so they came up with a code word. Someone who had
Committed adultery would say they had "fallen".
This seemed to satisfy the old priest and things went well, until the priest
Died at a ripe old age.
About a week after the new priest arrived. He visited the mayor of the town
And seemed very concerned. The priest said, "You have to do something about
The sidewalks in town. When people come into the confessional, they keep
Talking about having fallen."
The mayor started to laugh, realizing that no one had told the new priest
About the code word.
Before the mayor could explain, the priest shook an accusing finger at the
Mayor and said, "I don't know what you're laugh ing about, your wife fell
Three times this week."
