My wife emailed this to me today. (Just to let you know I served 3 years as a Lay Clergy for the local Methodists. I thought it was funny.) I hope you do too! :smile:


The Pastor's Ass



The pastor entered his donkey in a race and
it won.

The pastor was so pleased with the donkey
that he entered it in the
race
again, and it won again.


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 $10.





The next day the paper read:

NUN
SELLS ASS FOR $10.

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.


The moral of the story is . . . being
concerned about public opinion
can
bring you much grief and misery . . even shorten your
life.


So be yourself and enjoy life.


Stop worrying about everyone else's ass and
you'll be a lot happier
and
live longer!

Have
a nice day!

ok...

I get it. Nobody, and I do mean nobody thought it was funny. Lots of looky lou's but not funny.

I suppose you would have had to be there.

Maybe not the funniest joke on the net but as a life style guide it's not a bad one.

i loved it.

I thought it was also right on when it speaks of the Major News Media spins put on a story as innocent as a pastor with a racing donkey.

Could you imagine though walking into a sanctuary expecting to hear a high-minded sermon and hearing the pastor tell this story to make a lifestyle choice statement? :(

I'm glad you did, I missed it the first time but thought it was funny when I read it just now.
