The Dead Mule
>A Preacher went to his church office on Monday morning and discovered a
>dead mule in the church yard. He called the police. Since there did not
>appear to be any foul play, the police referred the Preacher to the
>health department.
>
>They said since there was no health threat that he should call the
>sanitation department. The manager said he could not pick up the mule
>without authorization from the mayor.
>
>Now the Preacher knew the mayor and was not to eager to call him. The
>mayor had a bad temper and was generally hard to deal with, but the
>Preacher called him anyway.
>
>The mayor did not disappoint. He immediately began to rant & rave at the
>pastor and finally said, "Why did you call me any way? Isn't it your job
>to bury the dead?"
>
>The preacher paused for a brief prayer and asked the Lord to direct his
>response. He was led to say, "Yes, Mayor, it is my job to bury the dead,
>but I always like to notify the next of kin first!"
