A Political Solution
Mike moved
to Texas and bought a donkey from a farmer for $100.00. The farmer agreed to
deliver the donkey the next day. The next day he drove up and said, “Sorry son,
but I have some bad news, the donkey died.”
Mike
replied, “Well, then just give me my money back.”
The farmer
said, “Can't do that. I went and spent it already.”
Mike said, “Ok, then, just bring me the dead
donkey.”
The farmer asked, “What ya gonna do with him?”
Mike said, “I'm going to raffle him off.”
The farmer said, “You can't raffle off a dead
donkey!”
Mike said, “Sure I can Watch me. I just won't tell
anybody he's dead.”
A month later, the farmer met up with Mike and
asked, “What happened with that dead donkey?”
Mike said, “I raffled him off. I sold 500 tickets at
two dollars a piece and made a profit of $898.00.”
The farmer said, “Didn't anyone complain?”
Mike said, “Just the guy who won. So I gave him his
two dollars back.”
Mike now works for the government.
