Arthritis

WHAT CAUSES ARTHRITIS????

A drunk man who smelled like beer sat down on a subway next to a
priest.
The man's tie was stained, his face was plastered with red
lipstick, and a half-empty bottle of gin was sticking out of his torn coat
pocket.
He opened his newspaper and began reading.
After a few minutes the man turned to the priest and asked, 'Say
Father, what causes arthritis?'
The priest replies, 'My Son, it's caused by loose living, being
with cheap, wicked women, too much alcohol, contempt for your fellow
man, sleeping around with prostitutes and lack of a bath.'
The drunk muttered in response, 'Well, I'll be damned, ' Then
returned to his paper.
The priest, thinking about what he had said, nudged the man and
apologized. 'I'm very sorry. I didn't mean to come on so strong.
How long have you had arthritis?'
The drunk answered, 'I don't have it, Father.. I was just reading
here that the Pope does.'
