What Causes Arthritis?

A drunk that smelled like a brewery got on
a bus one day. He sat down next to a priest.
The drunk's shirt was stained, his face was
full of bright red lipstick, and he had a
half empty bottle of wine sticking out of
his pocket. He opened his newspaper and
started reading. A couple of minutes later,
he asked the priest, "Father, what causes
arthritis"?
/n
"Mister, it's caused by loose living, being
with cheap, wicked women, too much alcohol,
and contempt for your fellow man.
/n
"Well, I'll be damned," the drunk muttered
and returned to reading his paper.
/n
The priest, thinking about what he said,
turned to the man and apologized. "I'm
sorry, I didn't mean to come on so strong.
How long have you had arthritis?"
/n
"I don't have arthritis, Father, but I just
read in the paper that the Pope has it."
