Call the US Senate for Assistance

It was a fine spring day in his new Washington, DC parish.

He walked to the window of his bedroom to get a deep breath of the beautiful day outside.

He then noticed there was a elephant lying dead in the middle of his front lawn.

He promptly called the US Senate for assistance.

The conversation went like this:

"Good morning. This is Senator Lott . How might I help you?"

"And the best of the day te yerself. This is Father O'Malley at St.Brigid's. There's a elephant lying dead in me front lawn. Would ye be so kind as to send a couple o' yer lads to take care of the matter?"

Senator Lott, considering himself to be quite a wit, replied with a smirk, "Well now father, it was always my impression that you people took care of the last rites!"

There was dead silence on the line for a long moment.
