A little boy wanted $100.00 very badly and prayed for weeks, but
nothing happened. Then he decided to write God a letter
requesting the $100.00.
When the postal authorities received the letter addressed to
God, USA, they decided to send it to the President. The President was so amused that he instructed his
secretary to send the little boy a $5.00 bill. The President
thought this would appear to be a lot of money to the little boy.
The little boy was delighted with the $5.00 bill and sat down to
write a thank-you note to God, which read:
Dear God: Thank you very much for sending the money, however, I noticed that for some reason you sent it through Washington, D.C. and those assholes deducted $95.00 in taxes.
