An American decided to write a book about famous churches around the

world. So he bought a plane ticket and took a trip to Orlando, thinking

that he would start by working his way across the USA from South to North.

On his first day he was inside a church taking photographs when he

noticed a golden telephone mounted on the wall with a sign that read

"$10,000 per call".

The American, being intrigued, asked a priest who was strolling by what

the telephone was used for. The priest replied that it was a direct line to

heaven and that for $10,000 you could talk to God.

The American thanked the priest and went along his way.

next stop was in Atlanta. There, at a very large cathedral, he saw the

same golden telephone with the same sign under it. He wondered if this was

the same kind of telephone he saw in Orlando and he asked a nearby nun what

its purpose was. She told him that it was a direct line to heaven and

that for $10,000 he could talk. to God.

"O.K., thank you," said the American.

He then travelled to Indianapolis, Washington DC, Philadelphia,Boston and

New York. In every church he saw the same golden telephone with the same

"$10,000 per call" sign under it.

The American, upon leaving Vermont decided to travel to England to

see if they had the same phone. He arrived in the west country, and again, in

the first church he entered, there was the same golden telephone, but this

time the sign under it read "40pence per call."

The American was surprised so he asked the priest about the sign.

"Father, I've travelled all over America and I've seen this same golden

telephone in many churches. I'm told that it is a direct line to Heaven,

but in the US the price was $10,000 per call. Why is it so cheap here?"

The priest smiled and answered, "You're in in the west country now, son - it's a local call".

like i said, I'm sorry and i already have my coat on
