Another tale from my local teller of Urban Legends:
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, but when he arrived he 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: "Okay, then; just unload the donkey."
Farmer: "What ya gonna do with him?"
Kenny: "I'm going to raffle him off."
Farmer: "You can't raffle off a dead donkey!"
Kenny: "Sure I can; watch me -- I just won't tell anybody he's dead."
A month later the farmer ran into Kenny at the store and asked, "Whatever happened with that dead donkey?"
Kenny: "I raffled him off -- I sold 500 tickets at two dollars a piece and made a profit of $998.00."
Farmer: "Didn't anyone complain?"
Kenny: "Just the guy who won, so I gave him his two dollars back."
When Kenny grew up, he eventually became the chairman of Enron...
