Nuggets of wisdom and wit from a kindly old

My beloved friend Arthur has gone
to be with God, may his trip be an easy one.
Arthur, I expect submissions to Nuggets, and I'll accept no excuses.

The biker, the old lady, two chickens and much, much more.
A biker stops by the local Harley Shop to have his bike fixed. They
couldn't do it while he waited, so he said he didn't live far and
would just walk home.
On the way home he stopped at the hardware store and bought a
bucket and an anvil. He stopped by the feed store/livestock dealer
and picked up a couple of chickens and a goose. However, struggling
outside the store he now had a problem: how to carry all of his
purchases home.
While he is scratching his head he was approached by a little old
lady who told him she was lost. She asked, "Can you tell me how to
get to 1603 Mockingbird Lane?" The biker said, "Well, as a matter of
fact, I live at 1616 Mockingbird Lane. I would walk you home but I
can't carry this lot"
The old lady suggested, "Why don't you put the anvil in the
bucket, carry the bucket in one hand, put a chicken under each arm
and carry the goose in your other hand?"
"Why thank you very much," he said and proceeded to walk the old
girl home.
On the way he says "Let's take my short cut and go down this
alley. We'll be there in no time."
The little old lady looked him over cautiously then said, "I am a
lonely widow without a husband to defend me. How do I know that when
we get in the alley you won't hold me up against the wall, pull up
my skirt, and ravish me?"
The biker said, "Holy smokes lady! I am carrying a bucket, an
anvil, two chickens, and a goose. How in the world could I possibly
hold you up against the wall and do that?"
The lady replied, "Set the goose down, cover him with the bucket,
put the anvil on top of the bucket, and I'll hold the chickens." |
