One morning, the members of a farm family were
coming to the kitchen for breakfast. Just as Junior seated himself, his mother told him he
was not going to get anything to eat until he went to the barn and fed the animals.Irritated at this, he stomped out the door and
headed for the barn. As he fed the chickens, he kicked each one in the head. As the cow
bent down to start in on the fresh hay he had just put in the stall, he kicked it in the
head. He poured food into the trough for the pigs, and as they started eating, he kicked
them in the head. He went back to the kitchen and sat down again.
His mother was furious. "I saw what
you did, so since you kicked the chickens, you'll get no eggs for breakfast. And since you
kicked the cow, you'll get no milk. And no bacon or sausage because you kicked the
pigs."
Just then, the father came down the stairs
and nearly tripped on the family cat. On impulse, he kicked the cat off the stairs.
The boy looked at his mother and asked
"Are you gonna tell him or should I?"
