A little boy wanted $100 very badly; his mother
told him to pray to
God for it. He prayed for two weeks but nothing
turned up. Then he
decided perhaps he should write God a letter
requesting the $100. When
the post office received the letter addressed to
God, they opened it
and decided to send it to the President. The
President was so
impressed, touched and amused that he instructed
his secretary to send
the little boy $5. He thought this would appear
to be a lot of money
to a little boy. The little boy was delighted
with the $5 and sat
down to write a thank-you letter, which read as
follows;
Dear God,
Thank you very much for sending me the money. I
noticed that you had
to send it through Washington. As usual, those
thieving bastards
deducted $95.
