The Pastor's Ass

[ReFur]

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.

A similar tale:

 

During World War II, a particular captain of a US Navy vessel was quite fussy about his uniforms. He had one washer woman in Honolulu that he trusted to wash them right. So, a day out of Pearl Harbor, he instructed the radio man to send a message to have his laundress meet him at the pier to collect his uniforms. The playful radio man sent the following message:

 

HAVE THE CAPTAIN'S WOMAN MEET HIM AT THE PIER.

 

When the captain found out about the text of the message, he ordered the radio man to correct the transmission to reflect the fact that his "washer woman" was to meet him.

 

The radio man promptly replied:

 

CORRECT PREVIOUS MESSAGE. INSERT WASHER BETWEEN CAPTAIN AND WOMAN.

Good thing it wasn't a rubber gasket instead of a washer!
