Pig Story




A farmer had five female pigs and as times were hard, he had determined
to take them to the county fair and sell them.  While at the fair, he
met another farmer who owned five male pigs.  After talking a bit, they
decided to mate the pigs and split everything 50/50.

The farmers lived sixty miles away from one another and so they agreed
to drive thirty miles and find a field in which to mate their pigs.

The first morning, the farmer with the female pigs got up at 5 am.,
loaded the pigs into the family station wagon, which was the only
vehicle they had, and drove the thirty miles.  While the pigs were
mating, he asked the other farmer, "How will I know if they are
pregnant?"

The other farmer replied, "If they're in the grass grazing in the
morning, then they're pregnant, if they're in the mud, then they're
not."

The next morning they were rolling in the mud, so he hosed them off,
loaded them again into the family station wagon and proceeded to try
again.

The following morning, MUD again !!!

This continued all week until one morning the farmer was so tired
that he couldn't get out of bed.  He called to his wife, "Honey,
please look outside and tell me if the pigs are in the mud or in
the field."

"Neither," yelled his wife, "they're in the station wagon and one
of them is honking the horn.
