TODAY'S JOKE
One day there was a knock on the Pope's office door. When
he answered it, the salesman said, 'Hello, my management team
would like to discuss a proposal with you.' After taking a seat
in his office, the salesman said, 'I am with Kentucky Fried
Chicken. We would like to offer you a contract to the church
if you can change the Lord's blessing from 'Give us this day
our daily bread' to 'daily chicken'.'
The Pope said, 'I'm sorry we just cannot do that.' The salesman
went back to his office where he discussed the outcome of the
meeting. He returned to the Pope's office a week later with the
same proposal, only he had upped the bid to 4 million.
The Pope gently declined, again. The next week he came again
and offered the Pope an offering of 10 million. The Pope said,
'Let me think it over.'
The Pope then called a meeting with the elders of the church
and said, 'Well gentlemen, I have good news and bad news.
Kentucky Fried Chicken has generously offered us 10 million
dollars to change the Lord's Prayer from 'daily bread' to
'daily chicken'.
The bad new is that we will lose the Wonder Bread Contract.
