-------------------------------------
In California Unleaded gas went to $4.00 a gallon last Thursday.
Sister Mary Ann, who worked for a home health agency,
was out making her rounds visiting homebound patients
when she ran out of gas.
Fortunately, an Exxon station was just a block away.
She walked to the station to borrow a gas can and buy some gas.
The attendant told her that the only gas can he owned had been
loaned out, but she could wait until it was returned.
Since Sister Mary Ann was on the way to see a patient,
she decided not to wait, and walked back to her car.
She looked for something in her car that she could fill with gas,
and spotted the bedpan she was taking to the patient.
Always resourceful, Sister Mary Ann carried the bedpan
to the station, filled it with gasoline, and carried the full
bedpan back to her car.
As she was pouring the gas into her tank, two Baptist ladies
watched from across the street.
One of them turned to the other and said,
'If it starts, I'm turning Catholic.'

I have been chuckling pretty hard over that one for the last few
minutes. Good one, Lew.

Well, ya didn't exactly specify "penis-shaped" now, didja?
Even the word "rub" would have spiced that joke up.
Alas, not all "jokes" are funny.

Hell, even older:
The priest, new in Toronto, ventures onto the subway to meet with his
newly assigned flock downtown.
As he gets off the subway, he walks along Yonge Street and almost
immediately gets accosted by a hooker: "hey mister, how about a trick=85
5 bucks?"
Moments later=85 another one: "Hy there big fella, howsabout a trick=855
bucks?"
The priest finally makes to the parish church where he is met by
Sister Mary-Ellen. She welcomes him and asks him what he thought of
Toronto so far? "Nice city, sister, friendly people, but=85 what's a
trick?"
Mary-Ellen: "5 bucks, same as downtown"

If you're doing very old nun jokes;
Two nuns in the shower.
1st nun: "Where's the Soap?"
2nd nun: "Yes, it does, doesn't it?

After the Germans retreated in Italy, the allied forces came upon a
convent and found the courtyard full of nuns, habits over their heads,
pants down to their ankles, raped by the Germans.
The allied captain who had led the raid noticed two nuns, unscathed,
sitting on the side of the well. He asked them why they didn't get
raped. One nun answered: "We don't care for that kinda shit."

When you tell a joke to a republican, they laugh 3 times.
1) They laugh to be polite, but don't really 'get it'.
2) They laugh again, to be polite, when you explain it to them.
3) They laugh again, a few weeks later, when they finally 'get it'.

Sheeeees, if you have to run down all the possibilities:
It does not have to be inserted, just rubbed
You don't have t be a virgin to be a nun. Many were married or had less
than perfect previous lives.
For me, it was one of those 5 second delay funnies. Took just a second to
realize the play on words. Not a belly buster, but a good chuckle. Maybe
those that question the details should read a good sex education book,
especially the chapter on clitoral stimulation.

Even older:
Two nuns are buying a 40 oz. bottle of gin. The owner of the liquor
store says:
"You, women of the cloth, are buying gin?"
"Yes" says Sister Mary-Ellen, " Our parish priest is constipated=85 it's
medicinal."
So the owner won't even take their money and wishes the priest well.
On his way home, after locking up his liquor store for the night, he
notices the two nuns, pissed-drunk on a park bench.
"Sister!, I though you wanted that gin for priest's constipation??"
Nun: "You, don't think, he's gonna shit when he sees us like this?"
Where do you think the word "TRANSISTER" came from?
A nun with a sex change.

I have to side with Larry on this one. I figured out the intended punch
line after only a couple of hours of thought, but I still could not see
where it ranked as one of the better jokes. Now... the cobblestone joke - I
got it and I liked it.

That joke is the same vintage as the one about two nuns in the grocery
store: "Shall we buy 2 cucumbers Sister Mary?"
" Of course, Sister Mary-Ellen, we can always eat one?"

Right, immediately and gut-wrenchingly.

Oh, I understood it. My insta-gutter mind automatically works that
way. ;)

Sexual antics with the soap would not be considered "wearing" to me,
but "inserting". Soapin' up and fingerin' ain't "wearing", either.
Realistically, a virgin nun wouldn't be able to insert a large bar of
soap anywhere, in -any- of her virgin openings.
Thanks for playing.

I agree--not funny. I didn't get it until hint #3. And several minutes
before that I already decided it wasn't going to be funny.
The comment: "It is a rule of comedy that jokes do not get funnier
with explanation" was both true and funnier! : )

It is a rule of comedy that jokes do not get funnier
with explanation. The best you can hope for now is
understanding.
So, that being said, here are further hints. Answer
yourself the following:
1. Where might the soap be that 1st Nun would not know
where it is?
2. Where might the soap be, and what might be happening
to it, that 2nd Nun might misinterpret 1st Nun's
question?

I must either be in DENSE mode or the joke is. 'Sprain, preese?
