Getting a hairdryer through customs

Posted: 15 May 2009 03:57 PM PDT

A distinguished young woman on a flight from Ireland asked the Priest beside her, 'Father, may I ask a favor?'

'Of course child. What may I do for you?'

'Well, I bought an expensive woman's electronic hair dryer for my Mother's birthday that is unopened and well over the Customs limits, and I'm afraid they'll confiscate it. Is there any way you could carry it through customs for me? Under your robe perhaps?'

'I would love to help you, dear, but I must warn you: If asked a question by Customs, I will not lie.'

'With your honest face, Father, no one will question you.'

When they got to Customs, she let the priest go ahead of her.

The Customs official asked, 'Father, do you have anything to declare?'

So the honest Priest replies, 'From the top of my head to my waist, I have absolutely nothing to declare.'

The Customs official thought this answer strange, so asked, 'And what do you have to declare from your waist to the floor?'

'I have a marvelous instrument designed to be used on a woman, but to date, it is unused.'

Roaring with laughter, the Customs official said, 'Go ahead, Father. Next!'
