Cute story -
Along the edge of a forest glade,
a beech and a birch tree grew up
about fifty yards apart and became good friends ! One spring (when
they were both mature trees), they notice a young sapling sprouting
about halfway between them, and
both try to claim 'fatherhood' !
Well, an argument ensues, and with their friendship at stake they decide
to find someone to settle it ! In a little while, they spot a woodpecker nearby and ask him to intervene -
The birch tree hollers out to him -
"Hey, Woody ! Could you settle an
argument for us ?"
Woodpecker replies - "Sure, guys ! What do you need me to do ?"
Beech tree tells him - " I say that
little sapling between us is my son, and he claims it's his ! Could you maybe get a small taste and let us know whether he's a beech or
a birch ?"
"Sure ! No problem !"
When he comes back, they both
want to know who's 'son' it is - the beech or the birch ? -
"Neither ! That's the sweetest
piece of ash I've ever stuck my
pecker into !"
Wonder what they had to say about that
Don't know ! I think they just wanted
to settle the 'paternity' issue !
DNA ? Are we talking genetics,
here, or is that just short for
'Do Not Ask' ?
Sometimes do not ask is the better option

I understand your stance. I just know that more than the 500 of us subscribed to the βAtticβ would enjoy your humor.

Maybe so, but much of my humor
wouldn't be fit for any other section
of the Stage - it would end up back here, anyway ! (It would be deemed too coarse, crass, or 'off-color', for
the most part !)
Here's a little story that was posted
awhile back - will try to re-post as accurately as I can remember it !
John and Judy are high-school sweethearts - John is a young sportsman who loves hunting,
fishing, and the outdoors in
general !
After graduation and a stint in the military, he comes home and gets
into all his favorite activities ! After three more years with Judy, he
decides they should marry and proposes !
Shortly after returning from their
honeymoon, John is packing for
a combined hunting/fishing trip
with his buddies - Judy, wanting
more time and attention from
him stands quietly by, watching
him pack !
Tentatively, she asks him - "John,
would you ever consider selling off your boat or camper, or any of your guns and gear for me ?"
He looks at her, somewhat taken aback with her question, and tells
her - "Damn, Judy ! We've been
married hardly a month and you're
already starting to sound like an
ex-wife !"
"Ex-wife ? You never told me you
were married before !"
"Because I never was !"
