RE: O/T: Weighing Piggy

Enjoy

Been around but it's BBQ season and a luau qualifies.

Lew

-------------------------------------------------------
Keoki wants to have a luau.

He needs a pig for the luau, so he goes to a pig farm and asks the
farmer for a twenty-pound pig.

The farmer goes into the pen and searches around for awhile.

Finally, he picks up a pig, puts its tail in his mouth and begins to
swing the the pig around for a few seconds.

He puts the pig down and says, "Nope, not quite 20 pounds."

He picks up another, puts the tail in his mouth, swings the pig
around
awhile and declares "This one's 20 pounds!"

Keoki says, "You can't weigh a pig like that!"

"Sure I can," says the farmer, "Watch this."

So he calls his son over and asks him to weigh the pig.

The boy comes over, picks up the pig , puts its tail in his mouth,
and
swings it around for awhile.

Soon he puts the pig down and says, "This one weighs 20 pounds."

Keoki still doesn't believe they can weigh a pig this way, so the
farmer tells his son to get his mother so she can weigh the pig.

After five minutes the boy returns alone.

"She can't come out just yet," he says, "She's weighing the
mailman."

Not today, anyway! The mailman doesn't pass on July 4th. You have to get your pig weighed before the 4th, in order to expect something as that.
