Taxes

A little boy needed $100 very badly and his mother told him to pray to God for
it. He prayed and prayed for two weeks, but nothing turned up.


Then he decided to write God a letter requesting the $100. When the postal
authorities received the letter addressed to God, they opened it up, and decided
to send it to President Clinton.


President Clinton 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 to God which reads as follows: "Dear God, Thank you so very much for
sending me the money. Inoticed you sent it through Washington. As usual those
bastards deducted $95 as tax."
