A
preacher wanted to raise money for his church and on being told that there was
a fortune in horse racing, decided to purchase a horse and enter it in the
races. However, at the local auction, the going price for horses was so high
that he ended up buying a donkey instead. He figured that since he had it, he
might as well go ahead and enter it in the races. To his surprise, the donkey
came in third!
The next
day the local paper carried this headline: PREACHER’S ASS SHOWS.
The
preacher was so pleased with the donkey that he entered it in the race again,
and this time it won. The paper read: PREACHER’S ASS OUT IN FRONT.
The
Bishop was so upset with this kind of publicity that he ordered the preacher
not to enter the donkey in another race. The paper headline read: BISHOP
SCRATCHES PREACHER’S ASS.
This was
too much for the Bishop, so he ordered the preacher to get rid of the donkey.
The preacher decided to give it to a nun in a nearby convent. The paper
headline the next day read: NUN HAS BEST ASS IN TOWN.
The
Bishop fainted in shock. When he came to he informed the nun that she would
have to get rid of the donkey, so she sold it to a farmer for $10.00.
The next
day the headline read: NUN SELLS ASS FOR $10.00.
This was
too much for the Bishop, so he ordered the nun to buy back the donkey, lead it
to the plains, and let it go.
Next day,
the headline in the paper read: NUN ANNOUNCES HER ASS IS WILD AND FREE.
The Bishop
was buried the next day.
