Life Explained

On the first day Lord created cow. And Lord said, "You must go to the field with the farmer all day long and suffer under the sun, have calves and give milk to support the farmer. I will give you a life span of sixty years." Cow said, "That's a kind of a tough life you want me to live for sixty years. Let me have twenty years and I'll give back the other forty." And Lord agreed.

On the second day Lord created Monkey. Lord said, "Entertain people, do monkey tricks, make them laugh. I'll give you a twenty year life span." Monkey said, "How boring, monkey tricks for twenty years? I don't think so. Give me ten years and I'll give back the other ten. So Lord agreed (sigh).

On the third day Lord created dog. And to dog, Lord said, "Sit all day by the door of your house and bark at anyone who comes in or walks past. I will give you a life span of twenty years."
Dog said, "That's too long to be barking. Monkey gave you back ten, so that's what I'll do too, okay? And Lord agreed again.

On the fourth day Lord created man. Lord said, "Eat, sleep, play, enjoy. Do nothing, just enjoy, enjoy. I'll give you twenty years." Man said, "What? Only twenty years? No way man. Tell you what, I'll take my twenty, and the forty cow gave back, and the ten monkey gave back, and the ten dog gave back. That makes eighty, okay?" Okay," said Lord. "You've got a deal."

So that is why for the first twenty years we eat, sleep, play, enjoy, and do nothing; for the next forty years we slave in the sun to support our family; for the next ten years we do monkey tricks to entertain our grandchildren; and for the last ten years we sit in front of the house and bark at everybody.

Life has now been explained.
