Oh, Ditch!

One afternoon, as the girls were fleeing home from evil Quakertown School, they turned down Raub Road. They had traveled this road many times before in the glorious Monarch Carriage, but this time they saw a road turning off of it Sarah nor Shannon had ever seen. Being the exploring type, Shannon quickly turn down this road when, "THUNK!" "Oh, no", cried Sarah, what was that? As the fair lasses climbed out of the carriage they noticed that a metal pipe had ferociously attacked their wheel and had given them a flat. This was the first time such a thing had happened to them, but Shannon had taken a course in the School of Evil that had showed you how to change tires. So, she went and got the jack from the back, along with the crowbar and started to undo the bolts. Shannon pulled and pried, but to no avail. The bolt was stuck! Sarah gave it a try. Still nothing came of it. They jumped on it, pulled on it, and pushed on it. Nothing happened. After a few minutes of all this huffing and puffing, and woman stopped by and asked if she could lend a hand. She, too, had no luck. Then across the field there were some men farming. They must have seen the damsels huffing and puffing away, because three of them came to lend a hand. Finally, they got the bolts off. As Shannon thanked them and was trying to figure out how to use the jack, the one man said, "I guess you want me to change it, too" and before she had a chance to answer; he started to jack it up. So the farmers finished changing the tire. Sarah and Shannon thanked him, and they went on their merry way. But they did not appreciate the tone he had said that they needed him to change it, too, so Sarah and Shannon swore they would always know how to use the jacks in any carriage they were in.

Wood you believe that!

So Tired!
