My mom sent me this in email, so I thought I’d share!
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!
How funny. Thank you for making me smile on a gloomy, Monday morning.

Wayne: If you’re still trying out being a nudist it very well might be off running “wild and free.”
This is an oldie but goodie. It’s an allegory for how serious we take things that shouldn’t be taken so seriously relating to religion.
That is such a good story to illustrate how caring so much about what others’ think is a sure way to an early grave. I’ll pass this joke along to friends who I know will love it too! Thanks for the chuckle!
