An old priest was dying. He sent a message for an IRS agent
and his

Lawyer to come to the Rectory. When they arrived, they were ushered up

to his bedroom. As they entered the room, the priest held out his hands

and motioned for them to sit on each side of the bed. The priest grasped

their hands, sighed contentedly, smiled and stared at the ceiling.

For a time, no one said anything. Both the IRS agent and Lawyer were

touched and flattered that the old priest would ask them to be with him

during his final moment. They were also puzzled because the priest had

never given any indication that he particularly liked either one of them.

Finally, the Lawyer asked, "Father, why did you ask the two of us to
come?"

The old guy mustered up some strength, then said weakly, "Jesus died

between two thieves, and that's how I want to go, too."
