I mentioned to him that I have a blog, and he asked me if I could write down this joke in English for others to read. It’s his favorite.
One day God decides to give temporary life to a pair of statues in a park. He chooses a random park with two random statues, one male and one female, and puts a soul in each one and tells them that they will live for 15 minutes.
The statues awaken and fall to their knees before God, thanking him. Then, not wanting to waste any more time, they run behind some bushes, and God hears the statues moaning and sees the bushes shaking. The pair of statues keep moaning and saying: “Finally, at last!” “After so many years!” “It’s as wonderful as I imagined!”
After the time has elapsed, they emerge from the bushes and one of the statues asks God if they could have 15 more minutes, just 15 more minutes and they will ask for no more. God, in his infinite pity, gives them 15 more minutes of life.
Then the statue says to the other: “Okay, now it’s your turn to hold the pigeon while I shit on it.”
