Father Patrick O'Malley rose from his bed in the rectory. It was a fine spring day in his parish in downtown Boston. He walked to the window of his bedroom to get a deep breath of the beautiful day outside. He noticed, however, that there was a donkey lying dead in the middle of his front lawn.
Believing that it might have been a mascot of the Democratic Party of Boston or a leftover from their recent convention he promptly called Senator John Kerry's office for assistance.
A voice answered, "Good morning. This is Senator Kerry. How may I help you?"
"And the best of the day to yerself. This is Father O'Malley at Saint Brigid's. There's a jackass lying dead in me front lawn. Would ye be so kind as to send a couple o' yer lads to take care of the matter?"
Senator Kerry, considering himself to be quite a wit, replied with a smirk, "Well now Father, it was always my understanding that you people of the cloth took care of last rites!"
There was silence on the line for a long moment, then Father O'Malley replied: "Aye, Senator and true it is, but we are also obliged to first notify the next of kin."
