Bert's Joke of the Month
I
n a convent in Ireland, the
99-year-old Mother Superior lay quietly. She was
dying.
The Nuns had gathered around her bed,
laying garlands around her and trying to make her last journey comfortable. They
wanted to give her warm milk to drink but she declined. One of the nuns took the
glass back to the kitchen. Then, remembering a bottle of Irish Whiskey that had
been received as a gift the previous Christmas, she opened it and poured a
generous amount into the warm milk.
Back at Mother Superior's bed, they
lifted her head gently and held the glass to her lips. The very frail Nun drank
a little, then a little more and before they knew it, she had finished the whole
glass down to the last drop.
As her eyes brightened, the nuns
thought it would be a good opportunity to have one last talk with their
spiritual leader.
"Mother," the nuns asked earnestly,
"Please give us some of your wisdom before you leave us"
She raised herself up very slowly in the bed on one elbow, looked
at them and said:
"DON'T
SELL THAT COW."
