The Chicken and the Donkey
On the farm lived a chicken and a donkey, both of whom loved to
Play together.
One day, the two were playing when the donkey fell into a bog
and began to sink. Scared for his life, the donkey 'hee-hawed' for
The chicken to go get the farmer for help!
Off the chicken ran, back to the farm. Arriving at the farm, he
searched and searched for the farmer, but to no avail, for he
had gone to town with the only tractor.
Running around, the chicken spied the farmer's new Z-3 silver
BMW. Finding the keys in the ignition, the chicken started the
beautiful motor car and then the chicken sped off with a length of rope, hoping he still had time to save his friend's life.
Back at the bog, the donkey was surprised, but happy, to see the
chicken arrive in the shiny BMW, and he managed to get a hold of
the loop of rope the chicken tossed to him. After tying the other
end to the rear bumper of the farmer's car, the chicken then drove
slowly forward and, with the aid of the powerful car, rescued the
donkey!
Happy and proud, the chicken drove the BMW back to the
farmhouse, and the farmer was none the wiser when he returned. The friendship between the two animals was cemented: best buddies, best pals.
A few weeks later, would you believe, the chicken fell into a
Mud pit, and soon, he too, began to sink and cried out to the donkey to save his life!
The donkey thought for a moment, walked over, and
Straddled the large puddle. Looking underneath, he told the chicken to grab his 'thing' and he would then lift him out of the pit.
The chicken got a good grip, and the donkey pulled him up and
out, saving his life.
And the moral of the story?
When you're hung like a donkey, you don't need a BMW to pick up
A chick !
