Drummers

Wow, I never knew there were so many drummer jokes!
I was looking for jokes about jazz music, and I found this site which concentrates on the drummers.  Obviously the jazz world views them like orchestral musicians do the violists.

Warning: some are not in the best of taste, but most of them are really funny.

Famous

The Pope goes to New York. He is picked up at the airport by a limousine. He looks at the beautiful car and says to the driver, "You know, I hardly ever get to drive. Would you please let me?" 

The driver is understandably hesistant and says, "I'm sorry, but I don't think I'm supposed to do that." 

But the Pope persists, "Please?" The driver finally lets up. "Oh, all right, I can't really say no to the Pope." 

So the Pope takes the wheel, and boy, is he a speed demon! He hits the gas and goes around 100 mph in a 45 zone. A policeman notices and pulls him over. 

The cop walks up and asks the Pope to roll down the window. Startled and surprised, the young officer asks the Pope to wait a minute. He goes back to his patrol car and radios the chief. 

Cop: Chief, I have a problem. 

Chief: What sort of problem? 

Cop: Well, you see, I pulled over this guy for driving way over the speed limit but it's someone really important. 

Chief: Important like the mayor? 

Cop: No, no, much more important than that. 

Chief: Important like the governor? 

Cop: Wayyyyyy more important than that. 

Chief: Like the president? 

Cop: More. 

Chief: Who's more important than the president? 

Cop: I don't know, but he's got the Pope driving for him!

Calling God

A newly ordained priest was traveling up from Cincinnati to his assigned parish.  Going through Dayton, he saw a sign that advertised phone-calls to God only $100.  He thought "that would be really nice to be able to call God, but that's a little too pricey for me."  Passing through Sydney, he saw a sign advertising phone-calls to God for only $30.  He almost stopped because that seemed like such a good price, but he was almost to his destination so he decided to wait.  When he arrived in McCartyville where he was assigned, he asked the parishioner who greeted him "How much does it cost to call God from here?"  The McCartyville man answered "Oh, nothing!  It's a local call!"

(This joke was told by a priest originally from McCartyville to some folks from McCartyville, where they like to say they live in God's country.)  :)
