Quote:

A city boy, Kenny, moved to the country and bought a donkey from an old farmer for $100.00. The farmer agreed to deliver the donkey the next day.

The next day the farmer drove up and said, "Sorry son, but I have some bad news. The donkey died."

Kenny replied, "Well then, just give me my money back."

The farmer said, "Can't do that. I went and spent it already."

Kenny said, "OK then, at least give me the donkey."

The farmer asked, "What are you going to do with him?"

Kenny replied, "I'm going to raffle him off."

Farmer exclaimed, "You can't raffle off a dead donkey!"

K-tiny replied, "Sure I can. Watch me. I just won't tell anybody he is dead."

A month later the farmer met up with Kenny and asked, "What happened with that dead donkey?"

Kenny said, "I raffled him off. I sold 500 tickets at $2 a piece and made a profit of $898."

Farmer asked, "Didn't anyone complain?"

Kenny replied, "Just the guy who won. So I gave him his money back. "



There is a version where the joke has an additional line:
Quote:

Kenny grew up and eventually became the chairman of Enron Corp.

Sometimes you own the libs. Sometimes, the libs own you.




It's not personal. It's just war.
