Cow
Match Sent in by Bernie of Virginia
The only
cow in a small town in Northern Italy stopped giving milk. Then the town
folk found they could buy a cow in Sicily quite cheaply. So, they brought
the cow over from Sicily. It was absolutely wonderful. It produced lots
of milk every day and everyone was happy.

They bought a bull
to mate with the cow to get more cows, so they'd never have to worry about
their milk supply again.

They
put the bull in the pasture with the cow, but whenever the bull tried
to mount the cow, the cow would move away.

No matter
what approach the bull tried, the cow would move away from the bull, and
he was never able to do the deed.
The people were very upset and decided to go to the local veterinarian,
Dr. Santucchi, who was very wise, telling him what was happening and asking
his advice.

"Whenever the bull tries to mount our cow, she moves away. If
he approaches from the back, she moves forward. When he approaches her
from the front, she backs off. If he attempts it from the one side, she
walks away to the other side."
The veterinarian rubbed his chin thoughtfully and pondered this before
asking, "Did you by chance buy this cow in Sicily?"
The people were dumbfounded, since no one had ever mentioned that they
had brought the cow over from Sicily.
"You are truly a wise veterinarian," they said. "How
did you know we got the cow from Sicily?"
The Vet replied with a distant look in his eyes:
"My wife is from Sicily!"

One night,
Tim was walking home when, all of a sudden, a thief jumped on him.

Tim and
the thief got tangled up and began to wrestle. They rolled about on the
ground and Tim put up a tremendous fight. However, the thief managed to
get the better of him and pinned him to the ground.
The thief then went
through Tim's pockets and searched him. All the thief could find on Tim
was 25 cents.
The thief was so surprised
at this that he asked Tim why he had bothered to fight so hard for 25
cents.
"Was that
all you wanted?"
Tim replied. "I thought you were after the five hundred dollars
I've got in my shoe!"
