Four Catholic ladies were having coffee.
The first Catholic woman tells her friends "My son is a priest. When he walks into a room, everyone calls him "Father."
The second Catholic woman chirps1, "My son is a bishop2. Whenever he walks into a room, people call him, "Your Grace."
The third Catholic mother says, "My son is a cardinal3. Whenever he walks into a room, people say, "Your Eminence4."
Since the fourth Catholic woman sips5 her coffee in silence, the first three women give her this subtle, "Well?"
So she replies, "My son is a gorgeous, 6' 2", hard-bodied dancer. When he walks into a room, people say, "Oh my God!"
