Pat confesses to his priest that he has been stealing building supplies for years. Fr. Tom asks, “What did you take?” “Well,”  says Pat, “enough to build my house, my two sons’ and a cottage by the lake.” “This is very serious. I’ll have to think of a suitable penance. Have you ever done a retreat?’ asks the priest. “No Father,” replied Pat, “but if you get the plans I’ll get the lumber.”
