Each Friday night after work, sun, snow or rain, Jack, being a Newfie,
would fire up his outdoor grill and cook a moose steak.
All of Jack's neighbours were Catholic. And since it was Lent, they
were forbidden from eating meat on Friday. The delicious aroma from the
grilled moose steaks was causing such a problem for the Catholic faithful
that they finally talked to their priest. The priest came to visit Jack, and
suggested that he too become a Catholic.
After several classes and much study, Jack attended Mass, and as the
priest sprinkled holy water over him, he said:
"You were born a Protestant and raised a Protestant, but now you are a
Catholic."
Jack's neighbours were greatly relieved, until Friday night arrived, and
the wonderful aroma of grilled moose once again filled the neighbourhood.
The priest was called immediately by the neighbours, and, as he rushed into
Jack's yard, clutching a rosary and prepared to scold him, he stopped and
watched in amazement.
There stood Jack, clutching a small bottle of holy water which he
carefully sprinkled over the grilling meat and chanted:
"You wuz born a moose, you wuz raised a moose, but now you is a Codfish."
