JOKE OF THE DAY

Three nuns in church on a hot day decide to remove
their robes because of the heat.

Not an unusual habit on a hot day.
So about a half hour later, the door bell rings
while their robes are slumped over pews
clear across the huge chapel.

They ask who it is. "The blind man," a voice replies.

The three nuns decide to simply open the door
because the man is blind.

He walks in, looks at the nuns and says,
"Nice tits! Where do you want me to install these blinds?"
