A man had fallen between the rails in a subway station. People were all crowding around trying to get him out before the train ran him over. They were all shouting. "Give me your hand!" but the man would not reach up.
Father O'Malley elbowed his way through the crowd and leaned over the man. "Friend," he asked, "what is your profession?"
"I'm an income tax collector," gasped the man.
"In that case," said the priest, "take my hand!"
The man immediately grasped the priest's hand and was hauled to safety. Father O'Malley turned to the amazed bystanders. "Never ask a tax man to "give" you anything, you fools."
~groan~
Father O'Malley was a good man... I'd o' been tempted just to let the tax man stay put! hehehe..
