HOW ABOUT A DRINK?
A male pastor walked into a neighbourhood pub to use the
restroom. The place was hopping with music and dancing, until
people saw the pastor. As the room quieted down he walked
up to the bartender, and asked, "May I please use the
restroom?"
The bartender replied, "I really don't think you should."
"Why not?" the pastor asked. "I really need to use a
restroom!"
"Well, I don't think you should. There is a statue of a naked
woman in there -- and she's only covered by a fig leaf!"
"Nonsense," said the pastor, "I'll look the other way!"
So, the bartender showed the clergyman the door at the top
of the stairs, and he proceeded to the restroom.
After a few minutes, he came back out, and the whole place
was hopping with music and dancing again! He went to the
bartender and said, "Sir, I don't understand. When I came in
here, the place was hopping with music and dancing. Then the
room became absolutely quiet. I went to the restroom, and
now the place is hopping again."
"Well, now you're one of us!" said the bartender. "Would you
like a drink too?"
"But, I still don't understand," said the puzzled pastor.
"You see," laughed the bartender, "every time the fig leaf is
lifted on the statue, the lights go out in the whole place.
Now, how about a drink?"
