The seven dwarfs are in Rome and they go on a tour of the city. After a while they go to the Vatican and meet the Pope.
Grumpy, for once, seems to have a lot to say; he keeps asking the pontiff questions about the church, and in particular the nuns.
"Your Holiness, do you have any really short nuns?"
"No, my son, all our nuns are over 5 feet tall."
"Are you sure? I mean, you wouldn't have any nuns that are, say, about my height? Maybe a little shorter?"
"I'm afraid not. Why do you ask?"
"No reason" (pause) "Positive? Nobody in a dark suit who is about 3 feet tall?"
"I'm sure."
"Okay. Thanks anyway."
Grumpy looks dejected at this news, and the pope wonders why; so he listens to the dwarfs as they leave the building:
"What did he say? What did he say?" chant the other six dwarfs.
Grumpy says: "He said, they don't have any short nuns."
And the other six dwarfs start chanting "Grumpy boinked a penguin! Grumpy boinked a penguin! ...." |
