THREE MEN WERE SITTING DIRECTLY BEHIND THEM.
BECAUSE THEIR HABITS WERE PARTIALLY BLOCKING THE VIEW,
THE MEN DECIDED TO BADGER THE NUNS,
HOPING THEY'D GET ANNOYED ENOUGH TO MOVE TO ANOTHER AREA.

IN A VERY LOUD VOICE, THE FIRST GUY SAID,
"I THINK I'M GOING TO MOVE TO UTAH.
THERE ARE ONLY 100 NUNS LIVING THERE."

THEN THE SECOND GUY SPOKE UP AND SAID LOUDLY,
"I WANT TO MOVE TO MONTANA.
THERE ARE ONLY 5O NUNS LIVING THERE."

THE THIRD GUY YELLED, "I WANT TO GO TO IDAHO .
THERE ARE ONLY 25 NUNS LIVING THERE."

THE MOTHER SUPERIOR TURNED AROUND,
LOOKED AT THE MEN,
AND IN A VERY SWEET AND CALM VOICE SAID,

"WHY DON'T YOU GO TO HELL...THERE AREN'T ANY NUNS THERE."

Cute joke, Gerald! I was taught by nuns of the Holy Cross. They had huge paper halos as part of their habit and would have certainly blocked the view. :lol:

Don't let resident pest JR1 catch you using all caps. He will accuse you of screaming in his ear and loves busting posters stones over it. Ha! Ha!

Opps, I forgot about the caps. Thanks.
Same here, had nuns from 1st grade thru grade 12.

LOL. Great name for the nun. I still have a few compass pokes in my hands and a few sore knuckles myself. I do remember those days. I think we need that in the public school system.

I had Franciscan nuns for 8 years in grade school. Our principal was named Sister Godencha who put the fear of God in everyone she taught. When she got angry she would look at you with her evil crossed "Igore" eye. Also went to an all male parochial high school taught by the Brothers of Holy Cross. I played varsity football three years and our assistant football coach was that of a 6'7" former All-State defensive end named Brother George. When I was a sophomore, he once bet me that he could out run me in a 100 yard dash....and he did too...only once though.

I transferred from public school to parochial school when I was in the 3rd grade. Had a nun from the Grey Nuns of the Holy Cross,, Sr. Marie du Sauver and she carried an 18" ruler wherever she went. Did not just rap your knuckles but would hit you on the back of the head when she thought you were not payin attention. Then it was to high school and the Xaverian Brothers. I remember Bro. Leonard throwing books at students in english class when they were not paying attention. One day he threw a book at a student and it went out the window where workmen were on a staging and almost caught one of them in his lower part of his leg. I think if he did hit him he would have fallen of the staging and fell two stories. One thing though "you learned" back in those days.

You are right though, they should let the teachers do some of the things they use to.

I believe the Mother Superior probably misspoke when making that statement. With the exception of Mother Teresa and maybe a couple of others their sisterhood isn't made up of a lot of saints.

Ha,ha,ha! That's funny, hop! It actually is called the Nun's Nut House and there is a Priest's Pedophilic Penitentiary.
