It wasn't ethnic, it was religious.

I am offended by all of this ethnic humor. Why must you make fun of
someone
else in your humor, you should be ashamed of yourselves.

Funny, but the version I heard had him applying as a cook in the Vatican
kitchen, but they didn't want a one-eyed, one-armed, flying purple Papal
potato peeler....

Thats pretty good, Johnny, BUT THAT AIN'T THE WAY I HEARED IT!!


Actually the guy wanted to be an usher at the Vatican, but they didn't
want a one-eyed, one-armed, flying Papal people seater......

Franko,
Thanks for the correction. I am offended anytime a joke uses someone's
religion, nationality, ethnicity, sex or sexual preference, or physical
attributes including hair color, height or weight or anything that makes
one person unique from another. Now that I think about it, I am offended by
all jokes.

Humor needs to be stopped before it hurts someone.
