The Power of the Press

        A preacher wanted to raise some money for his church and being
told
there was a fortune in horse racing, he decided to purchase one and
enter
him in the race.  However, at the local auction the going price for a
horse
was so steep he ended up buying a donkey instead and decided to enter
it in
the races.

        To his surprise, the donkey came in third.  The next day the
paper
carried this headline, "Preacher's Ass Shows."  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
Preacher's Ass."

        This was too much for the Bishop.  He ordered the preacher to
get
rid of the animal.  The preacher decided to give it to a nun.  The
newspaper
printed this headline: "Nun has the Best Ass in Town."  The Bishop
fainted.
He informed the nun that she would have to dispose of the donkey.  She
found
a farmer who was willing to pay $10.00 for it.  The newspaper stated,
"Nun
Peddles Ass for $10.00."  They buried the Bishop the next day.

C-Ya!!!
