trip to the barber who responded, "Rome? Why would anyone want to go
there? It's crowded & dirty. You're crazy to go to Rome. So, how are
you getting there?"
"We're taking TWA," was the reply. "We got a great rate!" "TWA?"
exclaimed the barber. "That's a terrible airline. Their planes are
old, their flight attendants are ugly, and they're always late. So,
where are you staying in Rome?"
"We'll be at the downtown International Marriott." "That dump! That's
the worst hotel in the city. The rooms are small, the service is surly
and they're overpriced. So, whatcha doing when you get there?"
"We're going to go to see the Vatican and we hope to see the Pope."
"That's rich," laughed the barber. "You and a million other people
trying to see him. He'll look the size of an ant. Boy, good luck on
this lousy trip of yours. You're going to need it."
A month later, the man again came in for his regular haircut. The
barber asked him about his trip to Rome. "It was wonderful," explained
the man,
"not only were we on time in one of TWA's brand new planes, but it was
overbooked and they bumped us up to first class. The food and wine
were wonderful, and I had a beautiful 28 year old stewardess who
waited on me hand and foot. And the hotel-it was great! They'd just
finished a $25 million remodeling job and now it's the finest hotel in
the city. They, too, were overbooked, so they apologized and gave us
the presidential suite at no extra charge!"
"Well," muttered the barber, "I know you didn't get to see the pope."
"Actually, we were quite lucky, for as we toured the Vatican, a Swiss
Guard tapped me on the shoulder and explained that the pope likes to
personally meet some of the visitors, and if I'd be so kind as to step
into his private room and wait the pope would personally greet me.
Sure enough, five minutes later the pope walked through the door and
shook my hand! I knelt down as he spoke a few words to me." "Really?"
asked the Barber. "What'd he say?"
He said, "Where'd you get the terrible haircut?" |  Print joke | Write Comment |  Send joke to friend |
