Anthony Davis’ Confession

A Catholic teenager named Anthony Davis lived in a small town and goes to confession one day. After confessing to an affair with a girl is told by the priest that he can’t be forgiven unless he reveals who the girl is. “I promised not to tell!” Anthony says. “Was it Linda Patricia, the butcher’s daughter?” the preist asks. “No, and I said I wouldn’t tell.” “Was it Sarah Elizabeth, the printer’s daughter?” “No, and I still won’t tell!” ‘Was it Michelle Francis, the baker’s daughter?” “No,” says Anthony. ‘Well, son,” says the priest, “I have no choice but to excommunicate you for six months.” Outside, Anthony’s friends ask what happened. “Well,” he says, “I got six months, but three good leads.”
