What do you have to declare?

A very distinguished lady was on a plane arriving from Switzerland. She found herself sitting next to a nice priest whom she asked, "Excuse me Father, could I ask a favor?"

"Of course my child, what can I do for you?" replied the priest.

"Here is the problem, I bought myself a new sophisticated hair removal gadget for which I paid an enormous amount of money. I have really gone over the declaration limits and I am worried that they will confiscate it at customs. Do you think you could hide it under your cassock?"

"Of course I could, but you must realize that I cannot lie."

"You have such an honest face Father, I am sure they will not ask you any questions." She then handed him her hair remover.

The aircraft arrived at its destination.

When the priest presented himself at customs he was asked, "Father, do you have anything to declare?"

Finding this reply strange the customs officer then asked, "And from the sash down, what do you have?"

The priest replied, "I have a marvelous little instrument destined for use by women, but which has never been used."

Breaking out in laughter the customs officer said, "Go ahead Father...Next!"
"From the top of my head to my sash, I have nothing to declare, my son" the priest replied.
