STATS
--------------------------
It
was a beautiful summer in Sweden,
and all the Swedish cows were enjoying
excellent grass crops.
There was more than enough grass to go around,
and all
through the fjords and dells you could hear
the cows moo-ing with happiness.
But
some time in late July, there arrived a band of rough housing moose
who muscled
the cows out of the way
and began eating more grass than was seemingly
possible.
Then,
just when it looked like things couldn't get worse,
the moose started to throw
up all over the place,
nauseated from their grassy feasting.
For
the rest of the summer,
the farmers could be heard complaining and singing,
The
Hills Are Alive With the Sounds of Moose Sick.
Robin
Hood and his merry men were in Sherwood Forest one night celebrating, and
imbibing.
They all became inebriated, and then Friar Tuck began to sing.
He
became louder with each drink.
Robin Hood, fearing that the Sheriff of
Nottingham might hear the band,
dragged the Friar deep into the woods.
He then
tucked him into the river, but the song lingered on.
The moral of the story:
You can lead a drunk to water but you can't make him hoarse
Wife kidnapped
Black Hole
