VATICAN HUMOR – this is hilarious!
After getting all of Pope Benedict’s luggage loaded into the limo, (and he
doesn’t travel light),
the driver notices the Pope is still standing on the curb.
‘Excuse me, Your Holiness,’ says the driver, ‘Would you please take your
seat so we can leave?’
‘Well, to tell you the truth,’ says the Pope, ‘they never let me drive at
the Vatican when I was a
cardinal, and I’d really like to drive today.’
‘I’m sorry, Your Holiness, but I cannot let you do that. I’d lose my job!
What if something should
happen?’ protests the driver, wishing he’d never gone to work that
morning..
‘Who’s going to tell?’ says the Pope with a smile.
Reluctantly, the driver gets in the back as the Pope climbs in behind the
wheel. The driver quickly
regrets his decision when, after exiting the airport, the Pontiff floors
it, accelerating the limo to 205 kms..
‘Please slow down, Your Holiness!’ pleads the worried driver, but the Pope
keeps the pedal to the metal
until they hear sirens.
‘Oh, dear God, I’m going to lose my license — and my job!’ moans the
driver.
The Pope pulls over and rolls down the window as the cop approaches, but
the cop takes one look at him,
goes back to his motorcycle, and gets on the radio.
‘I need to talk to the Chief,’ he says to the dispatcher.
The Chief gets on the radio and the cop tells him that he has stopped a
limo going at 155 kph.
‘So bust him,’ says the Chief.
‘I don’t think we want to do that, he is really important,’ said the cop.
The Chief exclaimed,’ All the more reason!’
‘No, I mean really important,’ said the cop with a bit of persistence.
The Chief then asked, ‘Who do you have there, the mayor?’
Cop: ‘Bigger.’
Chief: ‘ A senator?’
Cop: ‘Bigger.’
Chief: ‘The Prime Minister?’
Cop: ‘Bigger.’
‘Well,’ said the Chief, ‘who is it?’
Cop: ‘I think it is God!’
The Chief is even more puzzled and curious, ‘What makes you think it is
God?’
Cop: ‘His chauffeur is the Pope!!!’
