ITALIAN BOY'S CONFESSION

"Bless me Father, for I have sinned. I have been with
a loose girl"
The priest asks, "Is that you, little Johnny Parisi?"
"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, Johnny, 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 Volpe?"
"I'll never tell."
"Was it Nina Capelli?"
"I'm sorry, but I cannot name her."
"Was it Cathy Piriano?"
"My lips are sealed."
"Was it Rosa Di Angelo, then?"
"Please, Father, I cannot tell you."
The priest sighs in frustration. "You're very tight
lipped, Johnny Parisi, and I admire that. But you've sinned and have
to atone.
You cannot be an altar boy now for 4 months. Now you
go and behave yourself."
Johnny walks back to his pew, and his friend Nino
slides over and whispers, "What'd you get?"
4 months vacation and five good leads."
