Each Friday night
> after work, sun, snow or rain, Jack , being a Newfie, would fire
> up his outdoor grill and cook a moose steak.
> But, all of Jack's
> neighbors were Catholic.
> And since it was
> Lent, they were forbidden from eating meat on Friday.
> The delicious aroma
> from the grilled moose steaks was causing such a problem for the
> Catholic faithful that they finally talked to their
> priest. The priest came to visit Jack,
> and suggested that he
> become a Catholic.
> After several classes
> and much study, Jack attended Mass,
> and as the priest
> sprinkled holy water over him, he said:
> "You were born
> a Protestant and raised a Protestant, but now you are a Catholic."
> Jack's neighbors were
> greatly relieved, until Friday night arrived,
> and the wonderful
> aroma of grilled moose filled the neighborhood.
> The priest was called
> immediately by the neighbors, and, as he rushed
> into Jack's yard,
> clutching a rosary and prepared to scold him, he stopped and
> watched in amazement.
> There stood Jack,
> clutching a small bottle of holy water which he carefully
> sprinkled over the grilling meat and chanted:
> "You wuz born a
> moose, you wuz raised a moose, but now you is a Codfish.
>Thanks Barry & Louise D.
