Friars and Cannibals Two cannibals meet one day. The first cannibal says, "You know, I just can't
seem to get a tender Missionary. I've baked them, I've roasted them, I've
stewed them, I've barbecued them, I've tried every sort of marinade. I just
cannot seem to get them tender." The second cannibal asks, "What kind of Missionary
do you use?" The other replied, "You know, the ones that hang out at that
place at the bend of the river. They have those brown cloaks with a rope around
the waist and they're sort of bald on top with a funny ring of hair on their
heads." "Ah, ha!" the second cannibal replies. "No wonder ... those are friars!"
