At the Cathedral in Notre Dame, Quasimodo had left and they were stuck without a bellringer. So the Bishop decided to advertise the job amd very soon the first applicant arrived.
When he got there the bishop discovered that the man had no arms.
"Sorry mate, but I don't see how you can ring bells without any arms."
The chap said not a problem, walked up to the bells and started headbutting them to get them to ring and played a perfect peal on them.
"Wow," said the bishop "That's great, you've got the job"
"Great" said the chap and started jumping for joy when he slipped and fell from the bell tower to his death.
The bishop ran down the steps and stood next to a young priest who said "Who was he?"
"I don't know" replied the bishop "but his face rings a bell!!!"
<It gets worse>
The following day another chap arrives and says "My brother applied for job yesterday and died so my mum has sent me down to see if I can take his place"
"Sure " said the bishop " but first can you ring the bells as a demonstration"
So the chap went running up to the bell tower where he slipped and fell to his death.
The bishop ran down the steps and saw the same young priest who said "Another one!!! Who's he?"
"I don't know" said the bishop "but he's a dead ringer for his brother!"
<Guess who is in a silly mood this evening?>
