hangover joke:
THE LAST RACE
George loves the race track. One day he was there betting on the ponies
and nearly losing his shirt when he noticed this priest who stepped out
onto the track and blessed the forehead of one of the horses lining up for
the 4th race.
Lo and behold, this horse -- a very long shot won the race. George was
most interested to see what the priest did the next race. Sure enough, he
watched the priest step out onto the track as the 5th race horses lined
up, and placed his blessing on the forehead of one of the horses.
George made a beeline for the window and placed a small bet on the horse.
Again, even though another long shot, the horse the priest had blessed won
the race. George collected his winnings and anxiously waited to see which
horse the priest bestowed his blessing on for the 6th race.
The priest showed, blessed a horse, George bet on it, and won! George was
elated. As the day went on, the priest continued blessing one of the
horses, and it always came in first. George began to pull in some serious
money, and by the last race, he knew his wildest dreams were going to come
true. He made a quick stop at the ATM and withdrew every penny he owned,
and awaited the priest's blessing that would tell him which horse to place
the bet on.
True to his pattern, the priest stepped out onto the track before the last
race and blessed the forehead, eyes, ears and hooves of one of the horses.
George placed his bet -- every cent he owned -- and watched the horse come
in dead last. George was dumbfounded. He made his way to the track, and
when he found the priest, he demanded, "What happened, Father? All day you
blessed horses and they won. The last race, you bless a horse and he
loses. Now I've lost my life savings, thanks to you!!"
The priest nodded wisely and said, "That's the problem with you
non-Catholics you can't tell the difference between a simple blessing and
the Last Rites!
