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. 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.
