How yesterday went................

[carter200]

I stopped by my local Harley Shop to have my bike fixed. They couldn't do it while I waited, so since I didn't live far I'd just walk home. On the way home I stopped at the hardware store and bought a bucket and an anvil. I also stopped by the feed store/livestock dealer and picked up acouple of chickens and a goose. However, struggling outside the store I now had a problem: how to carry all of my purchases home.

While I was scratching my head I was approached by a little old lady who told me she was lost. She asked, "Can you tell me how to get to 1603 Mockingbird Lane?" I said, "Well, as a matter of fact, I live at 1616 Mockingbird Lane. I would walk you home but I can't carry this lot." The old lady suggested, "Why don't you put the anvil in the bucket, carry the bucket in one hand, put a chicken under each arm and carry the goose in the other hand?" "Why thank you very much," Ie said and proceeded to walk the old girl home.

On the way I said, "Let's take my shortcut and go down this alley. We'll be there in no time."The little old lady looked me over cautiously then said, "I am a lonely widow without a husband to defend me. How do I know that when we get in the alley you won't hold me up against the wall, pull up my skirt, and ravish me?"

Exasperated, I said, "Holy smokes lady! I am carrying a bucket, an anvil, two chickens and a goose. How in the world could I possibly hold you up against the wall and do that?" The lady replied, "Set the goose down, cover him with the bucket, put the anvil on top of the bucket and I'll hold the chickens."
