The Trucker, the Priest and the Taliban.

A truck driver would amuse himself by running over Taliban. Whenever he saw a Taliban walking down the side of the road he would swerve to hit him, enjoy the satisfying “THUMP”, and then swerve back onto the road.

One day, as the truck driver was driving along he saw a priest hitch hiking. He thought he would do a good turn and pulled the truck over. He asked the priest, “Where are you going, Father?” “I’m going to the church 5 miles down the road,” replied the priest. “No problem, Father! I’ll give you a lift. Climb in the truck.” The happy priest climbed into the passenger seat and the truck driver continued down the road. Suddenly the truck driver saw a Taliban walking down the road and instinctively he swerved to hit him, but then he remembered there was a priest in the truck with him, so at the last minute he swerved back away, narrowly missing the Taliban.

However even though he was certain he missed the Taliban, he still heard a loud “THUD”. Not understanding where the noise came from he glanced in his mirrors and when he didn’t see anything, he turned to the priest and said, “I’m sorry Father. I almost hit that Taliban.” “That’s okay my son”, replied the priest. “I got him with the door!”
