Picking up Chicks

On the farm lived a chicken and a horse, who loved to play
together.  One day, the two were playing together, when the horse fell
into a bog, and began to sink. Scared for his life, the horse whinnied
for the chicken to go get the farmer, to go get help!

Off the chicken ran, back to the farm. Arriving, he searched and
searched for the farmer, but to no avail, for he had gone to town with
the only tractor.  Running around , the chicken spied the farmer's new
BMW 7-series. Finding the keys inside, the chicken sped off with a
length of rope, hoping he still had time to save his friend's life.

Back at the bog, the horse was suprised, but happy, to see the chicken
arrive in the shiny B'mer, and managed to get ahold of the loop of rope
the chicken tossed to him. After tying the other end to the rear bumper
of the farmer's car, the chicken then drove slowly forward, and with the
aid of the powerful car rescued the horse!

Happy and proud, the chicken drove the BMW back to the farmhouse, and
the farmer was none the wiser when he returned. The friendship between
the two animals was cemented -- best buddies, best pals.

A few weeks later, the chicken fell into a mud pit, and soon he too,
began to sink, and cried out to the horse to save his life! The horse
thought a moment, walked over, and straddled the large puddle. Looking
underneath, he told the chicken to "grab his thingie" (not my word)
and he would then lift him out of the pit. The chicken got a good
grip, and the horse pulled him up and out, saving his life.

The moral of the story? When you're hung like a horse, you don't need a
BMW to pick up chicks.
