The Pope arrives in New York for a UN conference but he is
running a bit late. As he comes out Of the airline termmal he hails a cab.
He says to the cabbie "I have to be at the UN building in 10 mins"
"10 minutes!! It takes at least 40 mins. I can`t do it"
"Well
get out and let me drive" says the Pope
The cabbie was a bit taken back
by this but it was the Pope so he jumped in the back while the Pope drove.
Anyway the Pope was flying along dodging in and out of traffic when he
zoomed past a New York policeman.
The cop jumped on his motorbike and
pursued the speeding vehicle. Finally when he caught up with it and pulled it
over he asked the driver to wind down the window.
He then got on his
radio for assistance.
"This is road patrol to base I need some help"
"What's up?" asked headquaters.
"Well I've pulled someone over
for speeding and they are very big. what should I do?"
"How big are they
- a local politician?" asked HQ
"No, bigger than that"
"The
mayor of New York?"
"No, bigger than that"
"A movie star?"
"No, bigger than that"
"Not the President?"
"No, bigger
than that"
"Bigger than that?!" asked HQ bewildered, "Who the hell is
it?"
"I don't know" replied the cop,"but he's got the Pope driving him
around"
