This nun was going to Chicago. She went to the airport and sat down waiting for her flight and she looked over in the corner and saw one of those weight machines that tells your fortune. So she thought to herself I’ll give it a try just to see what it tells me.

So she went over to the machine and she put her nickel in and card came out and it said, You’re a nun you weigh 128lbs and you’re going to Chicago Illinois. So she sat back down and thought about it, she thought to herself it probably tells everyone the same thing, I’m going try it again.

So she went over to the machine again and put her nickel in it, a card came out and said, you’re a nun, you weigh 128lbs., you’re going to Chicago Ill. and you’re going to play a fiddle. She said to herself I know that’s wrong I have never played a musical instrument a day in my life. She sat back down and this cowboy came over and set his fiddle case down. She picked up the fiddle and just started playing beautiful music. She looked back at the machine and said this is incredible I’ve got to try it again.

So she went back to the machine put her nickel in another card came out and it said, you’re a nun, you weigh 128lbs., you’re going to Chicago Ill. and you’re going to break wind. She thinks I know it’s wrong now I’ve never broke wind in public a day in my life, well she tripped and fell off the scales and FARTED like a bay mule. So she sat back down and looked at the machine once again. She said to herself this is truly unbelievable, I’ve got to try it again.

She went back to the machine, put her nickel in and a card came out and said, you’re a nun, you weigh 128lbs., you’re going to Chicago Ill. and you’re going to have sex. She said ah-hah that does it. I know for sure its wrong now, I’m a nun, ain’t ever had none, and ain’t ever gonna get none. Well a huge electrical storm came through and the electricity went off and she got raped… She sat back down and thought about it for few minutes and then said this is truly, truly, incredible. But one thing is for certain, I’ve got to try it again just to see what is gonna happen to me before I leave this airport.

She went over to the machine put her nickel in and a card came out and it said. You’re a nun, you weigh 128lbs., you have fiddled, farted, and fucked around and missed your flight to Chicago!

Two hippies were waiting at the bus stop along with a nun with her leg in a cast. The first hippie asked, “Sister, how did you break you leg?”

“I slipped in the bathtub,” she said.

The second hippie asked the first, “What’s a bathtub?”

“How should I know, I’m not Catholic!”

Three nuns on a train had been getting to know one another and decided to tell each other what their greatest sins were. The first nun says, “My greatest sin is sex. Every year I go out for a week and work as a prostitute. Of course, I put all the money I earn into the poor box.”

The second nun says, “My greatest sin is drinking. Every year I take the money from the poor box and go out drinking for a solid week.” The third just sits there quietly.

So the first nun says to her, “Come on, we’ve told you our worst sins. Now you have to tell us yours.”

The third nun says, “My greatest sin is that I gossip, and I can’t wait to get off this train.”

Mother Teresa died and went to heaven.

God greets her at the Pearly Gates.”Are you hungry, Mother Teresa?” says God.

“I could eat,” Mother Teresa replies.

So God opens a can of tuna and reaches for a chunk of rye bread and they share it.

While eating this humble meal, Mother Teresa looks down into Hell and sees the inhabitants devouring huge steaks, lobsters, pheasants, pastries and wines. Curious, but deeply trusting, she remains quiet.

The next day God again invites her to join Him for a meal.

Again, it is tuna and rye bread.

Once again, Mother Teresa can see the denizens of Hell enjoying caviar, champagne, lamb, truffles and chocolates.

Still she says nothing.

The following day, mealtime arrives and another can of tuna is opened.

She can’t contain herself any longer. Meekly, she says: “God, I am grateful to be in heaven with You as a reward for the pious, obedient life I led. But here in heaven all I get to eat is tuna and a piece of rye bread, and in the Other Place they eat like emperors and kings! I just don’t understand.”

God sighs. “Let’s be honest,” He says. “For just two people, does it pay to cook?”

The teacher of the third-grade Sunday School class was planning to take her charges on a “field trip” to the ongoing church service, so they could get an idea of what morning worship looked like.

Before they left their classroom, she thought it would be a good idea to caution them against being boisterous in those surroundings.

Attempting to engage their attention, she asked, “And why do we need to be quiet in church?”

One bright little scholar replied right away, “Because people are sleeping in there.”
