Two tall trees, a birch and a beech, are growing in the woods. A small tree begins to grow between them and the beech says to the birch:
"Is that a son of a beech or a son of a birch?"
The birch says she cannot tell. They argue all afternoon whether it is a son of a birch or a son of a beech Just then a woodpecker lands on the sapling. The birch says:
"Hey Woody, you're a tree expert. Can you end this argument and tell us if that is a son of a beech or a son of a birch?"
The woodpecker takes a taste of the small tree. He replies:
"It is neither a son of a beech nor a son of a birch. It is, however, the best piece of ash I have ever put my pecker into."

It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."

I dare not comment on VM's post lest I suggest to H that he shouldn't give up the electronics industry for nightclub work.

haemphyst,
I love your sig line!!!
"I read that Haiti is without a Government. To help out, I am donating an Obama, Pelosi, Reid, Frank, Coakley, and two Clintons.
They may keep them. I'd give them a Constitution, but mine's missing!"
I couldn't agree more! I am a retired Ranger, and after his comment about us paying our own medical (and I was combat injured!), I have NO problem shipping the whole lot down there!
