Pastor's donkey

A Pastor wanted to raise money for his church and on being told that
there was a fortune in horse racing, decided to purchase one and enter
it in the races. However at the local auction, the going price for a
horse 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:

PASTOR'S ASS SHOWS

The Pastor was so pleased with the donkey that he entered it in the
Race again, and this time it won. The local paper read:

PASTOR'S ASS OUT FRONT

The Bishop was so upset with this kind of publicity that he ordered the
pastor not to enter the donkey in another race. The next day, the local
paper headline read:

BISHOP SCRATCHES PASTOR'S ASS

This was too much for the Bishop, so he ordered the Pastor to get rid
of the donkey. The Pastor decided to give it to a Nun in a nearby
convent. The local paper, hearing of the news, posted the following
headline the next day:

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 ten dollars.

The next day the paper read:

NUN SELLS ASS FOR $10.00

This was too much for the Bishop, so he ordered the Nun to buy back the
donkey and lead it to the plains where it could run wild.

The next day the headlines read:

NUN ANNOUNCES HER ASS IS WILD AND FREE.

The Bishop was buried the next day.
