A drunk man who smelled of beer sat down on the subway next to a priest. The man's tie was stained, his face was plastered with red lipstick, and a half-empty bottle of gin was sticking out of his torn coat pocket.
He opened his newspaper and began reading. After a few minutes the man put his paper aside, turned to the priest and asked, "Say, Father, what causes arthritis?"
The priest replies, "My son, it's caused by loose living, being with cheap, wicked women.
"Too much alcohol, contempt for your fellow man, sleeping around with prostitutes and lack of a bath."
The drunk muttered in response, "Well, I'll be d__m__d!" Then returned to his paper.The priest, thinking about what he had said, nudged the man and apologized.
"I'm sorry. Didn't mean to come on so strong. How long have you had arthritis?"
The drunk answered, "Oh, I don't have it, Father. I was just reading here in the paper that the Pope has it."
MORAL .......... Make sure you understand the question before you give an answer.
