Now I can't make my favorite infant joke (next to "Well, he wasn't born yesterday") about my little heathen baby."D'you know, if you weren't an agnostic, I should ask you for five shillings to buy a black god-daughter."
"Nothing will surprise me about your religion."
"It's a new thing a missionary priest started last term. You send five bob to some nuns in Africa and they christen a baby and name her after you. I've got six black Cordelias already. Isn't it lovely?"
