Once upon a time long, long go and far, far away a prince was travelling in a foreign land. There he met a beautiful princess and fell in love with her. He went to her father, the king, and asked for permission to marry his daughter.

The king said, "Gee, I get guys coming in here all the time wanting to marry my daughter, so I've devised a test to make sure she gets a good man. Outside the castle there are 3 tents. In the first tent are 2 gallons of wine. You must consume both gallons within an hour, and then you must enter the 2nd tent where you will find a saber-tooth tiger with an absessed tooth. You must pull the ailing tooth, and then you must enter the 3rd tent and satisfy the nymphomaniac that you will find there. If you can complete these 3 tasks then you may marry my daughter. No man has yet passed this challenge, but would you like to try?"

The prince replied, "I love your daughter, so I will accept the challenge."

The king's men took the prince outside and directed him to the 1st tent. After nearly an hour he stumbled out after consuming both gallons of wine. Then he entered the 2nd tent. He screamed and yelled, and the lion growled and roared. Finally, after about an hour, things in the tent quieted down, and the prince staggered out. He was exhausted and bloody, and his clothes were torn to shreds. Then the prince said, "Hokay, now wherezat woman with the sore tooth?"
