Three bulls heard via the grapevine
that the rancher was going to bring another bull onto the ranch, and
the prospect raised a discussion among them.
The first bull says, "Boys, we all know I've been here 5 years. Once we
settled our differences, we agreed on which 100 of the cows would be
mine. Now, I don't know where this newcomer is going to get HIS cows,
but I ain't' givin' him any of mine."
The second bull says, "That pretty much says it for me, too. I've been
here 3 years and have earned my right to the 50 cows we've agreed are
mine. I'll fight 'im till I run him off or kill 'im, but I'M KEEPIN' ALL
MY COWS."
The third bull says, "I've only been here a year, and so far you guys
have only let me have 10 cows to "take care of". I may not be as big as
you fellows yet, but I am young and virile, so I simply MUST keep all MY
cows."
They had just finished their big talk when an eighteen-wheeler pulls up
in the middle of the pasture with only ONE ANIMAL IN IT: the biggest
Son-of-Another-Bull these guys had ever seen! At 4700 pounds, each step
he took toward the ground strained the steel ramp to the breaking point.
The first bull says, "Ahem...You know, it's actually been some time
since I really felt I was doing all my cows justice, anyway. I think I
can spare a few for our new friend."
The second bull says, "I'll have plenty of cows to take care of if I
just stay on the opposite end of the pasture from HIM. I'm certainly not
looking for an argument."
They look over at their young friend, the third bull, and find him
pawing the dirt, shaking his horns, and snorting up a storm.
The first bull says, "Son, let me give you some advice real quick. Let
him have some of your cows and live to tell about it."
The third bull says, "Heck, he can have ALL my cows. I'm just making
sure he knows I'M a bull!"
