THE POWER OF THE PRESS!!

Larry Wan

A preacher wanted to raise funds for his church. Upon being told that there was a fortune in horse racing, he decided to purchase one and enter him in the races. However at the local auction the going price for horses was so steep he ended up buying a donkey instead. He decided that since he had it, he might as well go a head and enter it in the race. To his surprise the donkey came in third. The next day the racing sheets carried that head Line: "Preachers ass shows"

The preacher was so pleased with the donkey's performance that he entered it in the races again. This time it won and the paper read, "Preachers 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 newspaper printed this headline: "Bishop scratches preachers ass!" This was just too much for the Bishop. He ordered the preacher to get rid of the animal. The preacher decided to give the animal to a nun in a nearby convent. The headline read: "Nun has best Ass in town." The Bishop fainted!! He informed the nun that she would have to dispose of the donkey, so she found a farmer who was willing to take it off her hands for ten dollars. The newspaper stated: "Nun Peddles Ass for Ten Bucks" THEY BURIED THE BISHOP THE NEXT DAY!!!
