Each Friday night after work, sun, snow or rain, Jack, being a Newfie, would fire
up his outdoor grill and cook a moose steak.
But, 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 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 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."
