"Chicken Farming"
A life-long city man, tired of the rat race, decided he
was going to give up the city life, move to the country,
and become a chicken farmer. He found a nice, used
chicken farm, which he bought. Turns out that his next
door neighbor was also a chicken farmer. The neighbor
came for a visit one day and said, "Chicken farming
isn't easy. Tell you what. To help you get started, I'll give
you 100 chickens."
The new chicken farmer was thrilled. Two weeks later
the new neighbor stopped by to see how things were
going. The new farmer said, "Not too good. All 100
chickens died."
The neighbor said, "Oh, I can't believe that. I've never
had any trouble with my chickens. I'll give you 100 more."
Another two weeks went by, and the neighbor stops in
again. The new farmer says, "You're not going to believe
this, but the second 100 chickens died too."
Astounded, the neighbor asked, "what went wrong? What
did you do to them?"
Well, says the new farmer, "I'm not sure whether I'm
planting them too deep or not far apart enough."

"Ice Fishing"
A drunk decides to go ice fishing, so he gathers his
gear and goes walking around until he finds a big patch
of ice. He heads into the center of the ice and begins
to saw a hole.
All of sudden, a loud booming voice comes out of the
sky. "You will find no fish under that ice."
The drunk looks around, but sees no one. He starts
sawing again. Once more, the voice speaks, "As I
said before, there are no fish under the ice."
The drunk looks all around, high and low, but can't see
a single soul. He picks up the saw and tries one more
time to finish.
Before he can even start cutting, the huge voice interrupts.
"I have warned you three times now. There are no fish!"
The drunk is now flustered and somewhat scared, so he
asks the voice, "How do you know there are no fish? Are
you the Lord trying to warn me?"
"No", the voice replied. "I am the manager of this hockey rink."
