In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritūs Sancti ...

I'm an environmental analytical chemist. Every couple of months, a local priest, wearing a black suit, with a cerical collar, brings in his well water to be tested. Today, a lot of us brought in our kids, in costume, for a Halloween pizza party. I usually bring in a bag of candy to pass out to the kids. As I was walking through the lobby, wearing my lab coat, gloves, and safety glasses, I handed a candy bar to the priest and said, "Nice costume. I think I'll dress up like a priest next year", and I kept on walking. One of our receptionists is new, and she thought that I didn't know he was a real priest. She said that he got a real laugh out of this. Thank God that he had a sense of humor, or I'd be damned to hell, or worse, I'd be fired.
