LIFE -

On the first day, God created the dog and said:

"Sit all day by the door of your house and bark at

anyone who comes in or walks past.

For this, I will give you a life span of twenty years."

The dog said: "That's a long time to be barking. How

about only ten years and I'll give you back the other ten?"

So God agreed.

On the second day, God created the monkey and said: "Entertain people,

do tricks, and make them laugh. For this, I'll give you a twenty-year life

span."

The monkey said: "Monkey tricks for twenty years? That's a pretty

long time to perform. How about I give you back ten like the Dog?"

And God agreed.

On the third day, God created the cow and said: "You must go into

the field with the farmer all day long and suffer under the sun, have

calves and give milk to support the farmer's family. For this,

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. How about twenty and I'll give back the other forty?"

And God agreed again.

On the fourth day, God created man and said: "Eat, sleep, play,

marry and enjoy your life. For this, I'll give you twenty years."

But man said: "Only twenty years?? Could you possibly give me

my twenty, the forty the cow gave back, the ten the monkey gave

back, and the ten the dog gave back; that makes eighty, okay?"

"Okay," said God, "You asked for it."

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.

Life has now been explained to you.

[parishht]

So my next phase is monkey tricks?

I love monkey tricks, that means I can fart, pick my a$$ in public, scream like a banshy at nothing, hang from trees upside down, and people will just laugh and say "silly monkey".

That'll be great. ;D
