Seems that a little boy wanted $100 very badly. So he prayed for two weeks, but nothing happened. Finally he decided to write a letter to God requesting the cash. When the postal authorities received the letter addressed to GOD, USA they decided to send it to the President.

The President felt the little boy's pain so acutely that he told his secretary to send the little boy a $5 bill, thinking this would be a lot of money to a little boy.

The little boy was happy with the $5 -- so much that he penned a thank you note to GOD, which read:

Dear God,

Thank you very much for sending me the money, however I noticed that you had to send it through Washington. So please be advised that, as usual, those jerks deducted $95.
