A man wanted to buy a mule made by FORD. However, in some third world countries it seems Ford dealers are run out of, believe it or not, monasteries.
At these places, instead of Mustangs they sell mules.
The man repsonded to a newspaper ad in the paper of a mule that was FOR SALE from one of these monasteries.
The man was very impressed and finally purchased the mule. As he was leaving with the mule, er...salesperson told the man: "This mule is a religious mule, having been manufactured,er, raised here in the monastery.
To get him to trot you just say, 'thank God.' If you wish him to gallop you say, 'thank
God, thank God." And for real emergences you say, 'thank God, thank God, thank God.
'""Well, thank you very much," said the buyer, and he headed for the gate.
"OH! One more thing. To get him to stop you say, 'amen.'"
The man climbed on the back of the mule, wondering how long it would take to get the animal up to 60mph. and nudged him to get going.
"He Ya!" The mule would not budge.
"Giddy-yap!" Still nothing.
Finally . . ."Thank God" The mule proceeded to trot on down the road. The man figured he would see how good this mule really was. "Thank God Thank God"
At that the man had a tough time staying in the saddle. But after he got used to it he decided to see what this mule could really do.
"Thank God, Thank God, Thank God"
The mule flew down the street, faster than anything you have ever seen from an animal.
Problem was, up ahead he noticed a wide precipice with no bridge.
He stepped on the breaks, er. pulled on the reigns in an attempt to get the mule to stop. It did not work.
"WOAH!!" Still nothing.
"STOP!! HEAL!! AHHHH!" Still no response the mule just kept on going.
At the last possible moment he remembered "AMEN!"
The mule stopped just a breath short of the ravine. The man glanced over the mule's head and looked deep into the gorge.
He then wiped his brow and said: "Whew! Thank God."
