9. Reminds me of a joke...

This will take a minute to clean it up a bit. Now this joke was told to me while motoring across Nebraska back in the day.


There was this guy at a rest area on the Interstate out in the middle of Nebraska, there were a few other vehicles there at the time including a truck loaded with hogs. The driver seemed in a hurry and didn't notice a hole in the trailer where a hog had escaped. He just peed on the tires and got back in, took off.

The guy saw all this and decided he needed to catch the hog and try to get it back to the driver somehow. He spent a good hour trying to corner the hog and then get it tinto his vehicle but he managed and took off chasing after the truck.

Speeding like crazy he gets pulled over. The trooper asked him what was the hurry and what's up with the hog? The guy explains the whole story and the trooper tells him, "Man, that truck is so long gone, you'll never catch it even if I let you speed all the way across the state. But I'll tell you what, if you take that hog to the zoo, I'll let you go without a warning." The guy readily agrees and the trooper lets him go.

A few weeks later the trooper is going down the road and he sees the guy, with hog in the front seat wearing a baseball cap! The trooper pulls him over to see what that's about. The guy cheerily greets the trooper who is perplexed.

Trooper looks thing over and says, "Thought I told you to take the hog to the zoo."
The guy responds, "Oh, yes I did! And we had such a good time, I'm taking him to the ball game today!"
