A little boy comes down to breakfast. Since they live on a farm, his

mother asks if he had done his chores. "Not yet," said the little boy.

His mother tells him no breakfast until he does his chores.

Well, he's a little pissed, so he goes to feed the chickens, and he

kicks a chicken. He goes to feed the cows, and he kicks a cow. He goes

to feed the pigs, and he kicks a pig. He goes back in for breakfast

and his mother gives him a bowl of dry cereal. "How come I don't get

any eggs and bacon? Why don't I have any milk in my cereal?" he asks.


Well," his mother says, "I saw you kick a chicken, so you don't get any

eggs for a week. I saw you kick the pig, so you don't get any bacon for

a week either. I also saw you kick the cow, so for a week you aren't

getting any milk."


Just then, his father comes down for breakfast and kicks the cat

halfway across the kitchen.



The little boy looks up at his mother with a smile, and says: "Are you

going to tell him, or should I?"
