INFORMATION IS WEALTH

The Moral of the Story(Funny One)

A teacher gave her class of 11 year olds an assignment: Get their parents
to tell them a story with a moral at the end of it. The next day the kids
came back and one by one began to tell their stories.

Ashley said, "My father's a farmer and we have a lot of egg laying hens.
One time we were taking our eggs to market in a basket on the front seat of
the car when we hit a big bump in the road and all the eggs went flying and
broke and made a mess and the moral of
the story's, 'Don't put all your eggs in one basket'!"

"Very good," said the teacher.

Next little Sarah raised her hand and said, "Our family are farmers too.
But we raise chickens for the meat market. One day we had a dozen eggs, but
when they hatched we only got ten live chicks, and the moral to this story
is, 'Don't count your chickens before they're hatched'."

"That was a fine story Sarah. Michael, do you have a story to share?"

"Yes. My daddy told me this story about my Aunt Shirley. Aunt Shirley was
a flight engineer on a plane in the Gulf War and her plane got hit. She had
to bail out over enemy territory and all she had was a bottle of whisky, a
machine gun and a machete. She drank the whiskey on the way down so it
wouldn't break and then she landed right in the middle of 100 enemy troops.
She killed seventy of them with the machine gun until she ran out of
bullets. Then she killed twenty more with the machete until the blade broke.
And then she killed the last ten with her bare hands."

"Good heavens" said the horrified teacher, "What kind of moral did your
daddy tell you from that horrible story?"

"Stay the hell away from Aunt Shirley when she's been drinking."
