Chuck moved to Texas and bought a donkey from a farmer for $100.00. The farmer agreed to deliver the donkey the next day.

When he arrived the next day, the farmer announced, “Sorry son, but I have some bad news; the donkey died.”

Chuck replied, “Well, then just give me my money back.”

“Can’t do that. I went and spent it already.”

“Ok, then, just bring me the dead donkey.”

“What ya gonna do with him?”

“I’m going to raffle him off.”

“You can’t raffle off a dead donkey!”

“Sure I can. I just won’t tell anybody he’s dead.”

A month later, the farmer met up with Chuck and asked, “What ever happened with that dead donkey?”

Chuck replied, “I raffled him off. I sold 500 tickets at two dollars a piece and made a profit of $898.00.”

“Didn’t anyone complain?”

“Just the guy who won. So I gave him his two dollars back…”

Chuck did so well screwing folks in Texas, he moved to California where he became a member of the Legislature..!
