"A Businessman's Prayer"
A businessman who needed millions of dollars
to clinch an important deal went to church to pray
for the money. By chance he knelt next to a man
who was praying for $100 to pay an urgent debt.
The businessman took out his wallet and pressed
$100 into the other man's hand. Overjoyed, the man
got up and left the church.
The businessman then closed his eyes and prayed,
"And now, Lord, that I have your undivided attention..."

"Vacationing Priests"
Two priests decided to go to Hawaii on vacation.
They determined to make a real vacation by not
wearing anything that would identify them as clergy.
As soon as the plane landed, they headed for a
store and bought some really outrageous trunks,
sunglasses, shirts, etc.
The next morning, they went to the beach, dressed in
their "tourist" garb. They were sitting on beach chairs,
enjoying a drink, when a "drop dead gorgeous" blonde
in a tiny bikini came walking straight towards them.
They couldn't help but stare.
As the blonde passed them, she smiled and said, "Good
morning, Father," nodding and addressing each of them
individually, then she passed on by.
They were both stunned. How in the world did she know
they were priests?
The next day, they went back to the store, bought even
more outrageous outfits. These were so loud; you could
hear them before you even saw them.
Once again, they settled on the beach in their chairs to
enjoy the sunshine, etc. After a while, the same gorgeous
blonde came, wearing a string bikini this time, walking
toward them.
Again, she approached them and greeted them individually:
"Good morning, Father," "Good morning, Father," and
started to walk away.
One of the priests couldn't stand it and said, "Just a minute,
young lady."
"Yes?" she replied.
"We are priests, and proud of it, but I have to know, how
in the world did you know we are priests?"
"Father, it's me, Sister Helen."
