  1. Penal Times

    Share Share Post
    A Protestant was the cause of a Catholic priest being put in jail for three months. When he came out of jail he met the same Protestant, "Oh, so you are out again", "but you wont be long so," said the Protestant, as he was saying this, he was looking back at the priest, and the priest said, "You will never look any other way but the way you are looking now", and he never looked any other way.
