confession
A new convert to Catholicism decided to go to confession to
deal with his transgression. In the confessional, he told the
priest that he had sinned.
"What was your sin, my son?" asked the priest.
"I stole some lumber, Father," replied the man.
"How much lumber did you steal?" asked the priest.
"Father, I built my German Shepherd dog a nice new doghouse."
The priest replied, "Well, that's not so bad."
The man continued, "Father, I also built myself a 4-car
garage."
"Well, now, that's a little more serious."
"Father, there's more. In addition to the doghouse, the 4-car
garage, I also built a 5 bedroom, 4 bath house!"
With a pause, the priest finally spoke. "That is a little more
serious. I'm afraid you'll have to make a novena."
"Father, I'm not sure what a novena is, but if you've got the
blueprints, I've got the lumber!"
