So this old man about 80 years of age is sitting on his front porch rocking in his chair. A ritual he enjoys for hours a day, every day! This morning he notices a young boy walking in front of his house! A new face to the neighborhood! He also notices that he has some sort of wire under his arm! As the boy approaches his front porch, the old man says to the boy: “Hey what you got there under your arm, boy!” He responds “ I gots me some chicken wire and I'm going to catch me some chickens!”
“You're a fool boy, you can't catch no chicken with no chicken wire!” “We will see old man, We will see.”

That evening about five p.m., the boy walks past the old mans house pulling the chicken wire. With 12 chickens stuck to it! The old man looks, shakes his head and cannot believe his eyes!

The next morning the same boy walks in front of the old mans house, with a huge roll of tape under his arm!
(What kind of tape Colleen, come on you know the answer)

The old man says to him, “What you got there boy, under your arm?' “ I gots me some DUCK TAPE and I am going to gets me some DUCKS!” (I love this part)

About nighttime, the boy passes in front of the old mans house, pulling his DUCK TAPE with seven (that is for you Hope) DUCKS stuck to the tape! Again the old man scratches hi dead in disbelief.

The next morning the old man interested on what the boy would have today. Stand by his front gate in anticipation of the boy's arrival.
Excited he sees him coming past his house. With a bunch of weed over his shoulder!
“Hey boy what you got there over your shoulder?” The boy responds!
“I gots me some pussy willow.”
The old man shout out.
“HOLD ON BOY, WHILE I GETS ME MY HAT!”
