Bad Timing

A parish priest, Father O'Brien, was being honored at a dinner on the25th anniversary of his arrival in that parish.

A leading local politician, who was a member of the congregation, waschosen to make the presentation and give a little speech at thedinner, but he was delayed in traffic.

Sooo.....Father O'Briend decides to say his own few words while theyawait the politician's arrival......

"You will understand," he said, "the seal of the confessional, cannever be broken. What is confessed in there to me, is never repeatedon the outside. However, I got my first impressions of this parishfrom the first confession I ever heard here.

Realize, please, that I can only hint vaguely about this, but when Icame here 25 years ago, I thought I had been assigned to a terribleplace.

The very first chap who entered my confessional told me how he hadstolen a television set and, when stopped by the police, had almostmurdered the officer. Further, he told me he had embezzled money fromhis place of business and had an affair with his boss's wife. I wasappalled. But as the days went on I knew that my people at thiscongregation were not all like that, and I had, indeed come to, a fineparish full of understanding and loving people."

Just as the priest finished his talk, the politician arrived,apologized for his tardiness and then started in on his speech.

"I want to thank you all for letting me say a few words this eveningin honor of Father O'Brien. 25 Years is a long time. In fact, when hearrived here, I had the honor of being the first confession he heardat this congregation."

Now that is bad timing.
