A bad joke

A priest, a sailor and a politician met up at a bar to lament the same girl. The priest commented how she would come to him for guidance. He missed offering acts of contrition and setting her on the right path. The politician spoke of how she seemed amused by his half truths, white lies and bleeding heart promises. He missed the tolerant ear she offered while he was spinning yarns. The sailor sat quietly with his beer, a smile on his face. The other two pressed him, saying they knew he still saw her from time to time. He smirked and said, "what can I say...she likes seamen."

Yes, there is an inside story behind this. And no, I am not going to tell you within a public forum.
