986　Going into the clergy 进牧师的肚子，当牧师

A neighbor had invited some people, including our minister, over for dinner. On the menu were stuffing, peas and baked chicken. As we were eating, we were serenaded by a crowing rooster. “Listen to that rooster,” said one of the guests. Glancing at our pastor digging into his chicken, the host said, “You'd crow, too, if your child was going into the clergy.”

一位邻居邀请一些人，包括我们的牧师，去吃晚饭。食物中有烤鸡、豆以及填在鸡肚子里烤的混合食品。我们正在吃的时候，传来了雄鸡的啼鸣声。一位客人说：“听这鸡的叫声。”男主人看了一眼正在埋头吃鸡的牧师说：“如果你的孩子要进牧师的肚子，你也会哭。”（注：这是双关语，另一个意思是：“如果你的孩子要当牧师，你也会哭。”）
