The Pope(罗马教皇) flew into New York for a church meeting. He was running very late and decided to take a taxi. He asked the driver if he could drive him from the airport across town in 15 minutes. The taxi driver, having recognized the Pope, quickly agreed.

However, two miles into the trip the Pope noticed that the taxi driver was driving very very slowly. The driver couldn't concentrate on driving because he was too excited about the Pope riding in his car. Finally, getting very worried and not wanting to be late for his meeting, the Pope asked the driver if he could drive. The driver pulled over and changed seats with the Pope.

" Is it the New York Mayor?" says the captain.

"No, I think this man is more important, "answered the officer.

"More important than the Mayor? Who did you pull

over, the President?" asked the captain.

The officer thought for a second and then answered "No, I think that this man is even more important than the President."

"Well, sir, I don't know who he is, but the Pope is his driver.
