Recognizing the need for sleep, they stopped at a farmhouse to beg shelter. "I'll be happy to put you up, but there's a problem," the farmer told them. "We only have two beds. One of you will have to sleep in the barn." "It is no problem," responded the Hindu. "Give my kind companions the bed, and I will sleep in the barn." Well, soon after everyone had retired for the night, the doorbell rang. When the door opened, there stood the Hindu. "I am very sorry to trouble you, but there is a cow in the barn, and you must understand that my religion..." The Jew piped up. "Don't worry, everything's under control. I'LL sleep in the barn." And he headed outside. But soon the doorbell rang once more. There stood the Jew. "Holy Moses, I didn't realize there was a pig in the barn. Better I should sleep on the floor in here." "God forbid, Moshe," volunteered the Preppie. Give me that blanket! ~v ----------------------------------------------------------------- gopher://quux.org/ conversion by John Goerzen of http://communication.ucsd.edu/A-News/ This Usenet Oldnews Archive article may be copied and distributed freely, provided: 1.
