A preacher wanted to earn money for his church. He had heard there was
big money in horse racing, so he decided to purchase a horse and enter it
in a race. However, at the local auction, the going price for horses was
too steep, so the preacher ended up buying a donkey. The preacher figured
since he had the donkey, he might as well enter it in the races. (After
all, faith can move mountains). The next day the donkey came in third
place. The following day in the racing form, the headline appeared:
PREACHER'S ASS SHOWS
The preacher was so pleased with the donkey, he entered it in the next
day's race. This time the donkey won. The racing form read:
PREACHER'S ASS OUT IN FRONT
The ranking Bishop was so upset with this type of publicity that he
ordered the preacher not to enter the donkey in anymore races. The
headline read:
BISHOP SCRATCHES PREACHER'S ASS
This was too much for the Bishop and he ordered the preacher to get rid of
the donkey. The preacher decided to give the animal to a convent. The
following day the paper read: NUNS HAVE BEST ASS IN TOWN The Bishop
fainted. He informed the Nuns to get rid of the animal so they sold it to
a farmer for $10. The next day the headline read:
NUNS PEDDLE ASS FOR TEN BUCKS
They buried the Bishop the next day. The following day's headline read:
TOO MUCH ASS RESPONSIBLE FOR BISHOP'S DEATH
