A plane from Switzerland was carrying a highly regarded individual. She was seated next to a nice priest who she approached and inquired about: Father, could I please ask for a favor?”

Naturally, my child, what can I do for you?

“Here’s the problem: I spent a lot of money on a brand-new, sophisticated hair removal device.

I am concerned that they will take it away from me at customs because I have clearly exceeded the limits for declaration. Do you believe you could conceal it beneath your robe?

Ad: “Of course I could, my child, but you must understand that I cannot lie.”

“You have such a genuine face Father, I’m certain they won’t ask you any inquiries”, and she gave him the ‘hair remover’.

The airplane showed up at its objective.

The customs officer asked the priest, “Father, do you have anything to declare?” as he presented himself.

He responded, “My son, I have nothing to declare from the top of my head to my sash.”

The customs officer was puzzled by this response, so he asked, “And from the sash down, what do you have?” to which the priest responded, “I have there a marvelous little instrument designed for use by women, but which has never been used.”

The customs agent said, “Go ahead, Father,” breaking into a fit of laughter. Next!”
