The Donkey Dilemma

A reverend awoke one morning to find a de.ad donkey in his front yard. He had no idea how it got there, but he knew he had to get rid of it.

He called the sanitation department, the health department and several other agencies, but no one seemed able to help him.

In desperation, the good reverend called the mayor and asked what should be done.

The mayor asked, “Why bother me? “You’re a clergyman. It’s your job to bury the de.ad.”

The reverend lost his cool. “Yes,” he snapped. “But I thought I should at least notify the next-of-kin.”

Church

A little girl and her mother are at church when the little girl starts to feel sick.

Her mother tells her to go throw up in the bushes behind the church.

When the little girl returns, her mother asks her if she threw up.

“Yes,” the girl says. “But I didn’t have to go all the way around the back.

There was a box near the front door that said ‘For the Sick.’”
