Default After watching sales falling off

After watching sales falling off for three straight months at
Kentucky Fried Chicken, the Colonel calls up the Pope to ask for a
favor.

The Pope says, "What can I do?"

The Colonel says, "I need you to change the daily prayer from, 'Give
us this day our daily bread' to 'Give us this day our daily
chicken'. If you do it, I'll donate 10 Million Dollars to the
Vatican."

The Pope replies, "I am sorry. That is the Lord's Prayer and I can
not change the words."

So the Colonel hangs up. After another month of dismal sales, the
Colonel panics, and calls again. "Listen your Excellency, I really
need your help. I'll give you $50 million dollars if you change the
words of the daily prayer from 'Give us this day our daily bread' to
'Give us this day our daily chicken.'"

The Pope responds, "It is very tempting, Colonel Sanders. The church
could do a lot of good with that much money. It would help us
support many charities. But, again, I must decline. It is the Lord's
Prayer, and I can't change the words." So the Colonel gives up
again.

After two more months of terrible sales the Colonel gets desperate.
"This is my final offer, your Excellency. If you change the words of
the daily prayer from, 'Give us this day our daily bread' to 'Give
us this day our daily chicken' I will donate $100 million to the
Vatican."

"Let me get back to you," says the Pope.

The next day, the Pope calls together all of his bishops and he says, "I have some good news and I have some bad news. The good news is that KFC is going to donate $100 million to the Vatican." The bishops rejoice at the news.

Then one asks about the bad news.

The Pope replies, "The bad news is that we lost the Wonder Bread account."
