Guest guest Posted March 18, 2004 Report Share Posted March 18, 2004 The Dublin Duo ------------- At first I thought you were referring to you and and were going to give us some kind of a run-down on your travel plans. After reading the rest, I was reminded of one of my all-time favorites. Seems there was a Catholic church and a Jewish Syangogue on opposite street corners in a reasonably well-off section of some unnamed Eastern city. Having been there for many, many years, with the Priest and Rabbi both having served their congregations for many years as well, it was only natural that a rivalry developed over time...a rivalry involving one-up-mans-ship. After several years of dedicated service, the Parish chipped in and bought the priest a brand-new Cadillac as a gift. Not to be out- done, the Synagogue immediately followed suit by gifting the Rabbi with a brand-new Lincoln Continental. Since getting together for morning tea and cookies once a week had become a tradtion with the Priest and Rabbi, it was only natural that they started comparing and extolling the virtues of their new gifts. After about six weeks, with neither making progress on convincing the other as to which car was truly the better vehicle, they decided there was only one way to find out, and that was to have a race early the following Wednesday morning. At the appointed time and place, they meet and start the race. The Priest immediately jumps in the lead, going from zero to sixty faster than the collection plate. The Rabbi puts his foot to the floor and passes the Priest doing 70. Back and forth, back and forth, back and forth. Finally, when they are topping out at about 110 with with the Rabbi in the lead, roaring up behind in a black and white with red lights and siren is Sgt O'Leary. Well, the Rabbi was a couple of years younger than the Priest (therefore having better sight and hearing), notices what is approaching rapidly from the rear ... and hits his brakes. The Priest, however (in addition to eye and ear deficiencies), also has slower reflexes. You guessed it. Major rear-ender. The dust was still settling when Sgt O'Leary pulls to a stop behind them. He gets out, walks up to the two cars, surveys the damage. He then walks up to the front, sees the Rabbi sitting there in his clerical garb with a sheepish look on his face. He then walks back to the Caddie and looks in at the Priest in his clerical garb, with an equally sheepish look on his face. He then walks back to look again at the damage and returns to the Priest, shaking his head in disgust while he pulls out his ticket book and says " And tell me, Father, how fast was he going when he backed into you?
