MORAL OF THE STORY

One day at the end of class little Johnny's teacher has the class go
home and think of a story and then end it with a moral. The following day the teacher asks for a volunteer.

Little Suzy raises her hand. "My dad owns a farm and every Sunday
we load the chicken eggs on the truck and drive into town to sell them
at the market. One Sunday, we hit a big bump and all the eggs flew out of the basket & onto the road."

When the teacher asked for the moral of the story, Suzy replied,

"Don't keep all your eggs in one basket."

Next is little Lucy. "Well my dad owns a farm too, and every week we put the chicken eggs into the incubator. Last week only 8 of 12 eggs hatched."

The teacher asked for the moral of the story, and Lucy replied,

"Don't count your chickens before they're hatched."

"Wonderful!" exclaims the teacher.

Last is little Johnny.

"My Uncle Ted fought in the Vietnam war, and his plane was shot down over enemy territory. He jumped out before it crashed with only a case of beer, a machine gun and a machete. On the way down he drank the case of beer, and unfortunately landed right in the middle of 100 Vietnamese soldiers. He shot 70 with the machine gun, but ran out of bullets, so he pulled out his machete and killed 20 more. Then the blade on the machete broke, so he killed the last ten with his bare hands."

The teacher looks in shock at Johnny and asks if there is possibly
any moral to his story.

"Sure. Don't screw around with Uncle Ted when he's been drinking."
