Subject: THE PASTOR'S A-S
A pastor entered his donkey in a race and it came third.
The local paper read:
PASTOR’S A-S SHOWS
The pastor was so pleased with the donkey that he entered it in the race again,
and it won. The local paper read:
PASTOR'S A-S 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 A-S.
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 A-S IN TOWN.
The bishop nearly 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 A-S 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 A-S IS WILD AND FREE
The bishop was buried the next day.
The moral of the story is this: Being concerned about public opinion
can bring you much grief and misery... and 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!
