SHOW & TELL….
July 15th, 2005
One day at the end of class little Billy’s teacher has
the class go home and think of story and then conclude
the moral of that story …
The following day the teacher asks for the first volunteer
to tell their story, little Suzy raises her hand. “My dad
owns a farm and every Sunday we load the chicken eggs on the
truck and drive into town to sell them at the market.
Well, one Sunday we hit a big bump and all the eggs flew out
of the basket and onto the road.” The teacher asks for the
moral of the story … Suzy replies, “don’t keep all your
eggs in one basket”
Next is little Lucy … “well my dad owns a farm too and
every weekend we take the chicken eggs and put them in the
incubator. Last weekend only 8 of the 12 eggs hatched” …
teacher asks for the moral of the story. Lucy replies “don’t
count your eggs before they’re hatched”
Last is little Billy. “My uncle Ted fought in the Vietnam war;
his plane was shot down over enemy territory” … “he jumped
out before it crashed with only a case of beer, a machine gun
and a machete. On the way down he drank the case of beer.
Unfortunately, he landed right in the middle of 100 Vietnamese
soldiers.
He shot 70 with his machine gun, but ran out of bullets, so
he pulled out his machete and killed 20 more. The blade on
his machete broke, so he killed the last ten with his bare hands”
Teacher looks in shock at Billy and asks if there is possibly
any moral to his story … Billy replies, “Don’t fuck with
uncle Ted when he’s been drinking”
