A little boy wanted $100 badly and prayed for two weeks but
nothing happened.
Then he decided to write God a letter requesting the $100.
When the postal authorities received the letter to GOD USA, they
decided to send it to President Clinton. The President was so impressed,
touched, and amused that he instructed his secretary to send the little
boy a $5 bill. President Clinton thought that 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 note to GOD, which read:
Dear GOD,
Thank you very much for sending me the money. However, I
noticed that for some reason you had to send it through
Washington and, as usual, those bastards deducted $95.
