The Rubber Chicken and the Horse

"The Rubber Chicken and the Horse"*

*Once upon a time there were a horse and a rubber chicken
who were good friends. They lived on a farmyard with a lot
of other animals and were very happy. One day, while they
were playing near the farm's pond, the horse stepped into
a hole of quicksand. The horse rapidly sank and was yelling
for his friend, the rubber chicken, to save him.

The rubber chicken thought for a minute, then ran away.
The rubber chicken ran back to the farmhouse, and jumped
into the farmer's 735csi BMW. Luckily, the keys were in the
ignition, and the rubber chicken managed to start the car,
and put it in gear.

It raced over to the sinkhole, where the horse had almost
disappeared by now. The smart rubber chicken tied a rope
around the back of the BMW and threw the other end around
the front legs of the horse. The rubber chicken hopped back in
the driver's seat and stepped on the gas. Ever so slowly, the
horse eased out of the quicksand and jumped to safety. The
horse, still on shaky legs, stuttered: "You just saved my life.
Thank you!"

The rubber chicken just said, "Don't mention it - That's what
 friends are for!!"

They returned the BMW and went out to dinner together in
the barn yard.

A few days later, the horse got up from a good night's rest,
and heard some muffled cries for help coming from the
backyard. The horse followed the sounds and came upon a
terrible scene. There was his best friend, the rubber
chicken, stuck in a hole of quicksand!

The sand was already up to its neck-feathers and the cries
for help had almost stopped. The horse took a quick look around:
No rope in sight And the farmer had gone to town with his BMW.
What to do? The horse took a deep breath and spread his body
and legs out over the hole. His member was dangling down right
above the poor rubber chicken.

"Here, my friend, grab my thingie and I will pull you to safety!"

With its last bit of energy, the rubber chicken grabbed a hold of
the big horse-thingy and the horse straightened its body, pulling
the rubber chicken from its trap.

With one big step, both were on solid ground and safe. The
rubber chicken slumped down on the ground, exhausted:
"Now You saved my life, my friend!!"

The horse just smiled.

And what is the moral of this story? ... If you're hung like a horse,
you don't need a BMW to pick up chicks.
