An errant Knight:

"Bless me, Father, for I have sinned.

"It has been one day since my last confession.

"This morning I failed to cross myself with holy water as I left Daily Mass. I allowed myself to be distracted by hosiery.

"For these and all my sins I am heartily sorry."

The Patron of the Order of Malta, His Eminence Rayond Cardinal Burke:

"Go to hell!"
