FUNNY JOKE ON EXPLAINING OUR LIVES

Subject: Life explained


     The first day, God created the dog and said: 

       'Sit all day by the door of your house and bark
 at anyone who comes in or walks past. For this, I will give
 you a life span of twenty years.' 

       The dog said: 'That's a long time to be
barking. How about only ten years and I'll give you back
 the other ten?' 

     So God agreed. 
 
     On the second day, God created the monkey and said: 

   'Entertain people, do tricks, and make them
 laugh. For this, I'll give you a twenty-year life
 span.' 
 
  The monkey said: 'Monkey tricks for twenty years?
 That's a pretty long time to perform. How about I give
 you back ten like the Dog did?' 
 
      And God agreed. 

On the third day, God created the cow and said: 

   'You must go into the field with the farmer all
 day long and suffer under the sun, have calves and give milk
to support the farmer's family. For this, I will give
 you a life span of sixty years.' 

  The cow said: 'That's kind of a tough life
 you want me to live for sixty years.. How about twenty and
 I'll give back the other forty?' 

     And God agreed again. 

 On the fourth day, God created man and said: 

  'Eat, sleep, play, marry and enjoy your life. For
 this, I'll give you twenty years.' 
 
      But man said: 'Only twenty years? Could you
 possibly give me my twenty, the forty the cow gave back, the
 ten the monkey gave back, and the ten 
 the dog gave back; that makes eighty, okay?' 
 
       'Okay,' said God, 'You asked for it..'
 
 
       So that is why for our first twenty years we eat,
 sleep, play and enjoy ourselves. For the next forty years we
 slave in the sun to support our family. For the next ten
 years we do monkey tricks to entertain the grandchildren.
 And for the last ten years we sit on the front porch and
 bark at everyone. 
 
      Life has now been explained to you. 

       There is no need to thank me for this valuable
 information. I'm doing it as a public service
