My middle son sent this to me and I thought this applied to alot of you and it was cute and I'm sure this is and old joke and alot of you have read before especially the last paragraph probally applies here. A friend to all of you and alot of Hugs to you all! Richard
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!

The first time I heard/read this it was all about the nun BUT...
Hi Richard,
The joke started out with:
Sister Mary asked the bishop for permission to let her enter her donkey in a horse race. The bishop saw no reason to deny the request, so she entered the donkey in the next race, it came in third. When the bishop read the morning paper the next day, the headlines read "Sister Mary's Ass Shows". The bishop wasn't happy to see this but didn't want to inflate the situation with an official comment so decided to let the matter die down. Sister Mary was so happy with her donkey she immediately led the donkey down Main Street to the race track. The morning Headlines in the bishop's paper read "Sister Mary Parades Her Ass Down Main Street". The bishop called Sister Mary and forbade her to take the donkey out of the stables except to race. So Sister Mary kept the donkey stabled at the track and entered the animal in another race, which, it won. The morning headlines read "Sister Mary's Ass Out Front". The bishop was too upset to call to prevent the Sister Mary's entry of the donkey into the next race, it came in second. The headlines in the bishops paper read "Sister Mary's Ass Back in Place". The bishop called Sister Mary to put a stop to the races, but the donkey had already been entered. The bishope called the race officials to get the donkey out of the race. The headlines read "Bishop Scratches Sister Mary's Ass". This time the bishop had had enough and ordered the nun to sell the animal. The headlines read "Bishop Forces Sister Mary to Peddle Her Ass" The auction for the donkey was the next afternoon. The outraged Bishop went out to retrieve the donkey and stated it would only pull his private cart from now on. The headlines "Bishop Claims Sister Mary's Ass for His Own Use"
Well, I suppose it could go on for quite some time.
