The Hunchback of Notre Dame


Recommended Posts

The hunchback of Notre Dame was planning to retire so he put an ad in the local paper to find a replacement. After several weeks with no responses, a man finally came in to apply for the job. The problem was, he had no arms. "Sir," said Quasi, "I don?t mean to be rude but you must understand that it will be impossible for you to do this job without arms."

"Please," the man pleaded, "I haven?t worked in a long time. I have a wife and family to support. I must have this job, if you will just give me a chance!"

Quasi felt sorry for the man so he decided to give him a chance and lead him up to the bell tower. "There are the bells," he said, "Go ahead and try to ring them." The man screwed up his courage, got a running start and threw himself at the bells which he struck, head-on. He was immediately knocked out, fell the long distance to the marble floor below and died. Quasi ran down the stairs and met the Bishop as he got to the man.

"Who was he?" Asked the Bishop.

"I don?t know," said Quasi, "but his face rings a bell." (But wait, there?s more...)

Still needing a replacement, Quasi Moto kept running the ad. To his surprise, another man came to apply for the job and he had no arms also.

"I am the brother of the man who died here the other day. I now must care for my own wife and family as well as my brother?s. I must have the job you offer as no one else will hire me."

Quasi felt terribly sorry for the man and although he figured he didn?t have much chance, he had to let the man try so they climbed to the bell tower. Just as his brother did, the man got his courage up, ran at the bells, hit them with a loud "BONG!", fell to the marble floor and died. Again, the Bishop met Quasi where the man had falled and asked, "Do you know this man?"

Quasi answered, "No, but he?s a dead ringer for his brother."
