An Irish daughter had not been home for over 5 years. Upon her return her father cussed her, "Where have ye been all this time?
Why did ye not write to us, not even a line? Why didn't ye call? Can ye not understand what ye put yer old Mum thru?"

The girl, crying, replied, "Sniff, sniff...Da...I became a prostitute..."

"Ye what!!? Git out of here, ye shameless harlot! Sinner! You're a disgrace to this Catholic family".

"OK Da -- as ye wish. I just came back to give me Mum this luxurious fur coat, title deed to a ten bedroom mansion, plus a $5 million savings certificate. And for me little brother, this gold Rolex. And for ye, Da, the sparkling new Mercedes Limited Edition convertible that's parked outside, plus a membership to the country club...

...and an invitation for ye all to spend New Year's Eve onboard me new yacht in the Riviera and..."

"Now what was it ye said ye had become?" asked Da.

The girl, crying again, "Sniff, sniff...a prostitute Dad! ... Sniff, sniff."

"Oh! Begorrah! Ye scared me half to death, girl! I thought ye said ye'd become a Protestant. Come here and give yer old Da a hug."
