A pompous Southern minister is seated next to an attorney on a recent flight. After the plane is airborne, the flight attendant comes around for drink orders.

The attorney asks for a gin and tonic, which is brought and placed before him. The flight attendant then asks the minister if he would also like a drink.

The minister replies in disgust, "Ma'am, I'd rather be savagely raped by a brazen whore than let liquor touch these lips!"

The attorney politely hands his drink back to the attendant and says, "I'm sorry, I didn't know there was a choice"
