Several nuns were in their second floor convent one night when a fire 
broke out. The nuns took their habits off and tied them together to make a
rope to get out of the building via the window.

After they were safely on the ground and out of the building, a news
reporter came over to one of the nuns and said to her, "Weren't you 
afraid that the habits could have ripped or broken since they are old?

The nun Replied, "No, don't you know old habits are hard to break!??!
