Almost anything flies here, as long as Bush, the GOP, Imus, and the Duke Lacrosse team aren't in it! Oh and keep it clean--there are liberals present! I keed, I keed....
*********************************
So, there's this Italian barber in Queens, and one day a Catholic priest comes in and gets his hair cut. When it's all over, the priest begins to reach for his wallet, and the barber stops him. "You may not be my priest, but you are a holy Father and a man with a flock to tend to, a man of God, and it would not be right to accept payment from you."
The priest is very touched, and leaves. An hour later, he comes back with a beautiful hand-carved wooden crucifix, which he gives to the barber as a present.
Next day, a Protestant minister comes in and gets his hair cut. When it's all over, the minister begins to reach for his billfold, and the barber stops him. "You may not be a Catholic, but you are a good Christian and a man with a flock to tend to, a man of God, and it would not be right to accept payment from you."
The minister is very moved, and leaves. An hour later, he comes back with an exquisite leather-bound copy of the New Testament.
Third day, a Rabbi comes in and gets his hair cut. When it's all over, the minister begins to reach for his money belt, and the barber stops him. "You may not be a Christian, but you are a holy man and a man with a flock to tend to, a man of God, and it would not be right to accept payment from you."
The rabbi is visibly affected by the barber's words, and leaves. An hour later, he comes back with two more Rabbis.....
