The Cycles of Life explained...

Post by Old No7 »

From the local gun club... :wink:

Old No7

On the first day God created the dog. God said, "Sit all day by the door of your house and bark at anyone who comes in or walks past. I will give you a life span of twenty years." The dog said, "That's way too long to be barking. Give me ten years and I'll give you back the other ten."
So God agreed.

On the second day God created the monkey. God said, "Entertain people, do monkey tricks and make them laugh. I'll give you a twenty-year life span." The monkey said, "Monkey tricks for twenty years? I don't think so. Dog gave you back ten, so that's what I'll do too, okay?"
And God agreed.

On the third day God created the cow. "You must go to the field with the farmer all day long and suffer under the sun, have calves, and give milk to support the farmer. I will give you a life span of sixty years."
The cow said, "That's kind of a tough life you want me to live for sixty years. Let me have twenty and I'll give back the other forty."
And God agreed again.

On the fourth day God created man. God said, "Eat, sleep, play, marry and enjoy your life. I'll give you twenty years."
Man said, "What? Only twenty years for all that? Tell you what, I'll take my twenty -- plus I'll take the forty the cow gave back, and the ten the monkey gave back, and the ten the dog gave back -- so all that makes eighty, okay?"

"Okay," said God, "You've got a deal."

So that is why the first twenty years we eat, sleep, play, and enjoy ourselves;
For the next forty years we slave in the sun to support our family;
For the next ten years we do monkey tricks to entertain the grandchildren;
And for the last ten years we sit on the front porch and bark at everyone.

The Cycles of Life have now been explained.

While this is true, you all should see how Blaine turns into a harmless puppy around a certain blonde waitress at a local restaurant....
The most important aspect of this signature line is that you don't realize it doesn't say anything significant until you are just about done reading it & then it is too late to stop reading it....
