Little Lucy was playing in the garden when she spotted two
> spiders mating.
>
> "Daddy, what are those two spiders doing?"
>
> "They're mating, Lucy" he replied.
>
> "What do you call the spider on top, Daddy?" Lucy asked.
>
> "Oh, that's a Daddy Longlegs."
>
> Lucy asked, "Oh, so one's a Daddy Longlegs and the other
> one is a Mommy Longlegs?"
>
> Daddy replied, "No, honey, both of them are Daddy
> Longlegs."
>
> Lucy thought for a moment, then took her foot and stamped
> them flat. Well, we're not having THAT sort of thing in our
> garden!!"
> ~~~~~~
> A little turtle begins to climb a tree slowly.
>
> After long hours of effort, he reaches the top, jumps into the
> air waving his front legs, until he crashes heavily into the
> ground with a hard knock on his shell. After recovering his
> consciousness, he starts to climb the tree again, jumps
> again, and knocks the ground heavily again.
>
> The little turtle persisted again and again while a couple of
> birds sitting at the edge of a branch, watched the turtle with
> pain.
>
> Suddenly the female bird says to the male, "Dear, I think it's
> time to tell our little turtle he is adopted."
