Bless me Father, for I have sinned. I have been with a loose girl’.
The priest asks, ‘Is that you, little Joe Pagano ?’
‘Yes, Father, it is..’
‘And who was the girl you were with?’
‘I can’t tell you, Father.. I don’t want to ruin her reputation’.
“Well, Joe, I’m sure to find out her name sooner or later. So you may as well
tell me now. Was it Tina Minetti?’
‘I cannot say.’ ‘Was it Teresa Mazzarelli?’
‘I’ll never tell.’ ‘Was it Nina Capelli?’
‘I’m sorry, but I cannot name her..’ ‘Was it Maria Piriano?’
‘My lips are sealed.’ ‘Was it Rosa DiAngelo, then?’
‘Please, Father, I cannot tell you.’
The priest sighs in frustration ... ‘You’re very tight lipped, and I admire that. But you’ve sinned and have to atone. You may not sing in the choir for 4 months.
Now off you go’
Joe walks back to his pew. His friend Franco slides over and whispers,
‘What’d you get?’
‘Four months vacation and five good leads.’
