Chicken Wire & Duck Tape Follower
Shawn was sitting on his front porch watching the sun rise. He sees the
neighbour's kid walk by
carrying something big under his arm.
He yells out,
“Hey boy, whatcha got there?”
Boy yells back,
“Roll of
chicken wire.”
Shawn says,
“What you gonna
do with that?”
Boy says,
“Gonna
catch me some chickens.”
Shawn yells
“You damn
fool, you can't catch chickens with chicken wire!”
Boy just laughs and keeps walking.
That evening at sunset the boy comes walking by and to the old guy's surprise he
is dragging behind him the chicken wire with about 30 chickens caught in it.
Same time next morning Shawn is out watching the sun rise and he sees the boy
walk by carrying something kind of round in his hand.
Shawn yells out,
“Hey boy, whatcha
got there?”
Boy yells back,
“Roll of
duck tape.”
Shawn says,
“What you gonna
do with that?”
Boy says back,
“Gonna
catch me some ducks.”
Shawn yells back,
“You damn
fool, you can't catch ducks with duck tape!”
Boy just laughs and keeps walking.
That night around sunset the boy walks by coming home and to the old guy's
amazement he is trailing behind him the unrolled roll of duck tape with about 25
ducks caught in it.
Same time next morning Shawn sees the boy walking by carrying what looks like a
long reed with something fuzzy on the end.
Shawn says,
“Hey boy, whatcha
got there?”
Boy says,
“It's a
pussy willow.”
Shawn says,
“Wait up… I'll get my hat.”
