A
travelling salesman came upon an old farmer sitting on his porch, next to the
farmer was a pig with only one leg. The salesman was about to give his sales
pitch when his curiosity got the best of him.
"Excuse
me sir, but why does your pig only have one leg?" asked the salesman.
"Well
sonny , I'll tell ya. One day I was out plowing the back 40 when my tractor
overturned, pinning me underneath. I was losing blood and thought I would die
when that pig came running. He dug and rooted around with his nose till he got
me out and he dragged me back to the house. Saved my life that pig did."
"Wow,
that's really amazing," said the salesman, "but I still don't know
why the pig only has one leg."
"Well
I'll tell ya," said the farmer. "One night me and the wife were asleep
at about 3am when a fire broke out in the kitchen. Well that pig broke down
the door, came into our bedroom waking us up and getting us out before the fire
could get us, saved our lives that pig did!"
"Well
that's really great but why does the pig only have one leg?"
"Well
sonny, when you get a pig that smart, you don't want to eat him all at once!"
