>A man is driving down a deserted stretch of highway, when he notices
>a sign out of the corner of his eye. It reads SISTERS OF MERCY HOUSE
>OF PROSTITUTION 10 MILES. He thinks it was just a figment of his
>imagination and drives on without a second thought. Soon, he sees
>another sign which says SISTERS OF MERCY HOUSE OF PROSTITUTION 5 MILES
>and realizes that these signs are for real.
>
>When he drives past a third sign saying SISTERS OF MERCY HOUSE OF
>PROSTITUTION NEXT RIGHT, his curiosity gets the best of him and he pulls
>into the drive.
>
>On the far side of the parking lot is a somber stone building with a
>small sign next to the door reading SISTERS OF MERCY. He climbs the
>steps and rings the bell. The door is answered by a nun in a long
>black habit who asks, "What may we do for you, my son?"
>
>He answers, "I saw your signs along the highway, and was interested
>in possibly doing business."
>
> "Very well, my son. Please follow me."
>
>He is led through many winding passages and is soon quite
>disoriented. The nun stops at a closed door, and tells the man, "Please
>knock on this door". He does as he is told and this door is answered
>by another nun in a long habit and holding a tin cup. This nun
>instructs, "Please place $50 in the cup, then go through the large wooden
>door at the end of this hallway." He gets $50 out of his wallet and
>places it in the second nun's cup. He trots eagerly down the hall and
>slips through the door, pulling it shut behind him. As the door
>locks behind him, he finds himself back in the parking lot, facing
>another small sign:
>
> GO IN PEACE, YOU HAVE JUST BEEN SCREWED BY THE
> SISTERS OF MERCY.
