the goat

[garagenc]

Two rednecks are out hunting, and as they are walking along they come
> upon a huge hole in the ground.
> They approach it and are amazed by the size of it. The first hunter
> says "Wow, that's some hole; I can't even see the bottom. I wonder how
> deep it is."
> The second hunter says" I don't know, let's throw something down and
> listen and see how long it takes to hit bottom."
> The first hunter says "There's this old automobile transmission here,
> give me a hand and we'll throw it in and see".
> So they pick it up and carry it over, and count one, and two and
> three, and throw it in the hole. They are standing there listening and
> looking over the edge and they hear a rustling in the brush behind
> them.
> As they turn around they see a goat come crashing through the brush,
> run up to the hole and with no hesitation, and jumped in head first.
> While they are standing there looking at each other, looking in the
> hole and trying to figure out what that was all about, an old farmer
> walks up.
> "Say there", says the farmer, "you fellers didn't happen to see my
> goat around here anywhere, did you?"
> The first hunter says," Funny you should ask, but we were just
> standing here a minute ago and a goat came running out of the bushes
> doin' about a hunert miles an hour and jumped headfirst into this hole
> here!"
> The old farmer said "Why that's impossible, I had him chained to a
> transmission!"
