Man is sitting on an airplane prior to take-off, reading an article about the Pope in Time magazine, when a guy comes and takes the seat beside him. He looks at the guy, looks back at the picture in the magazine, and can't believe his eyes - it's the Pope himself! So they're sitting there, he's reading his magazine, Pope is working a crossword puzzle, and Pope leans over and says to him, "Excuse me, young man, but I wonder if you could help me with my crossword puzzle?" Man says, "Why certainly, Holy Father, I'd be honored to help if I can.

" Pope asks, "Do you know a four-letter word for a woman that ends in 'UNT?'" "Certainly, Holy Father, " the man replies, "The word is 'AUNT'." "Why, yes! That will do it!" Pope says.

"One more thing, " he asks, "Do you have an eraser?"
