An Irish lad go the church and enters the confessional; "Bless me
> Father, for I have sinned. I have been with a loose woman."
>
>
> The priest asks, "Is that you, little Timmy Shaughnessy?"
>
>
> "Yes, Father, it is."
>
>
> "And, who was the woman you were with?"
>
>
> "I can't be tellin'you, Father. I don't want to ruin her reputation."
>
>
> "Well, Timmy, I'm sure to find out sooner or later, so you may as well
> tell me now. Was it Brenda O'Malley?"
>
>
> "I cannot say."
>
>
> "Was it Patricia Kelly?"
>
>
> "I'll never tell."
>
>
> "Was it Sheilah O'Brien?"
>
>
> "I'm sorry, but I cannot name her."
>
>
> "Was it Kathleen Morgan?"
>
>
> "My lips are sealed."
>
>
> "Was it Fiona Grogan, then?"
>
>
> "Please, Father, I cannot tell you."
>
>
> The priest sighs in frustration. "You're a steadfast lad, Timmy
> Shaughnessy, and I admire that. But you've sinned, and you must atone.
> You cannot attend church mass for three months. Be off with you now."
>
>
> Timmy walks back to his pew. His friend Sean slides over and whispers,
> "What'd you get?"
>
>
> "Three month's vacation and five good leads."
