The mothers of four priests got together and were discussing their sons. My son is a monsignor, said the first proud woman. When he enters a room, people say, 'Hello, Monsignor.'

The second mother went on, My son is a bishop1. When he enters a room, people say, 'Hello, Your Excellency.'
 
My son is a cardinal2, continued the next one. When he enters a room, people say, 'Hello, Your Eminence3.'

The fourth mother thought for a moment. My son is six-foot-ten and weighs 300 pounds, she said, When he enters a room, people say, 'Oh, my God.'
