Looks like I’m talking to myself then. In that case.....
Two guys are walking down a road when they come across a well. Being curious, they take a look over the side but are surprised that they can’t see the bottom. (No it’s not PAP#1)
Anyway, they decide to drop a couple of rocks down the hole and listen… Nothing.
One of them says, “Wow, that’s deep! Couldn’t hear a thing. Perhaps if we throw down a larger stone or rock.”
Looking around they find a big, old cinder block and pitch it over the side. They pause and listen intently… They hear a sound, but it is coming from behind them! They quickly turn around just in time to see a goat charging at them, with it head lowered, flying along, its feet barely touching the ground, its moving so fast!
The two men dive out of its way just in time and the goat plunges past them, into the seemingly bottomless hole, to its doom. They look at each other and say, "Boy that was close! We’d better move away from this thing before we end up with the goat!"
Further along the path down they see a farmer working nearby. Thinking that the goat may have belonged to him they decide to tell him what happened at the well.
"Hey Mr. Farmer. Do you happen to own a goat?" one of the men asked.
The farmer replies, "Yeah, why do you ask?"
The men then tell what happened and how they narrowly avoided death in the hole from the speeding goat.
The farmer said, "Well boys, I don’t think that was my goat. You see, my goat was really old and crippled up with arthritis. There is no way he could have been moving that fast. Besides, I had him tied to this big, old cinder block."
Goodnight... and GLA
