A new priest, born and raised in Ottawa , is nervous about hearing
confessions, so he asks the older priest to sit in on his sessions.
The new priest hears a couple of confessions, then the old priest asks him to
step out of the confessional for a few suggestions.
The old priest suggests,
"Cross your arms over your chest, rub your chin with one hand and try
saying things like 'Yes, I see,' or 'Yes, go on,' or 'I understand.'
The new priest crosses his arms, rubs his chin with one hand and repeats all the
suggested remarks to the old priest.
The old priest says, "Now, don't
you think that that's a little better than slapping your knee and saying,
"oh shit... what happened next?"
