Here's to Ireland........?!

On vacation in Rome , I noticed a marble column in St!. Peter's with a golden telephone on it!. As a young priest passed by, I asked who the telephone was for!. The priest told me it was a direct line to Heaven, and if I'd like to call, it would be a thousand dollars!. I was amazed, but declined the offer!.


Throughout Italy , I kept seeing the same golden telephone on a marble column!. At each, I asked about it and the answer was always the same: a direct line to Heaven and I could call for a thousand dollars!.

I finished my tour in Ireland !. I decided to attend Mass at a local village church!. When I walked in the door I noticed the golden telephone!. Underneath it there was a sign stating: "DIRECT LINE TO HEAVEN 25 cents!." "Father," I said, "I have been all over Italy and in all the cathedrals I visited, I've seen telephones exactly like this one!. But the price is always a thousand dollars!. Why is it that this one is only 25 cents!?"


The priest smiled and said,
"Darlin', you're in Ireland now!. It's a local call!."
