Yes, you read that right. Rabbi Bob Alper, a professional standup comic, recently beat out 4,000 fellow funny people in a joke-writing competition organized by the Pontifical Missions Society called Joke With the Pope. As winner, he gets to call himself Honorary Comedic Advisor to the Pope, and the right to direct a $10,000 donation from the Missions Society to one of three international charities. (He selected House the Homeless in Ethiopia.)
