A priest and a rabbi operated a church and
a synagogue across the street from each other. Since their schedules intertwined, they
decided to go in together to buy a car. After the purchase, they drove it home and parked
in on the street between their establishments.
A few minutes later, the rabbi looked out
and saw the priest sprinkling water on their new car. It didn't need a wash, so he ran out
and asked the priest what he was doing. "I'm blessing it," the priest replied.
The rabbi considered this a moment, then
said, "Oh," and ran back inside the synagogue. He reappeared a moment later with
a hacksaw, ran to the back of the car and cut off the last two inches of the tailpipe.
