A guy wants to have a luau. He needs a pig for a luau, so he goes to a pig farm. He asks the farmer for a twenty-pound pig.
The farmer goes into the pen, searches around awhile. He picks up a pig, puts the tail in his mouth, and begins swinging the pig around for a few seconds. He puts the pig down, and says, "Nope, not quite twenty pounds."
He picks up another, puts the tail in his mouth, swings the pig around awhile, and declares, "This one's twenty pounds!" He brings the pig out, and the man says in a shocked tone, "You can't weigh a pig like that!"
"Sure I can, it's how I was taught by my pappy, and his pappy before him." said the farmer, "Watch this!" He called his son over and asked him to weigh the pig.
The boy came over, picked up the pig, put its tail in his mouth, and swung it around awhile. He put the pig down and said, "This one weighs twenty pounds."
The city man still looked like he didn't believe it, so the farmer told the boy to get his mother so that she could weigh the pig.
"She can't come out right now," the boy said. "She's weighing the mailman." |
