The moral of the story

[xcount]

A little bird had spent the winter in the south but was feeling kind of homesick. So, early in the spring, he decided to head back north. All the other little birds told him it was too early, that the weather up north really wasn't good yet. But he was very homesick and took off.

As he flew along it started to rain but he flew on. Then it got colder but he flew on. The rain turned to freezing rain and started to build up on his wings but he struggled on.

Finally, it turned to sleet. The ice built up on his wings to the point where he could fly no more and he plummeted to earth. He landed in a barnyard and there he lay, freezing to death.

Then a cow walked out of the barn and crapped right on top of the little bird. The warmth from the crap melted the ice on his wings and he started feeling better. Realizing he was going to live after all he became happy and started to chirp.

Just then a cat came out of the barn. He heard the little bird chirping, reached into the pile of crap, pulled the bird out, and ate him.

There are 3 morals to this story. First, he who craps on you is not necessarily an enemy. Second, he who pulls you out of the crap is not necessarily your friend.

Finally, if you are happy and warm, even if you're living in a pile of crap --- keep your mouth shut.

There was a fly in this same barn and when he heard all of the noise he flew over to see what was going on.

The fly saw the pile of steamy crap. And just could not pass up such a meal. So the fly went over and started feasting on the crap. It was so good he just could not stop eating.

Once the fly was completely full he desided to fly off back to his place. But he had eaten so much he could not fly. The fly then spotted a pitchfork and thought if I could climb to the top of the handle I could jump off and fly away. So the fly climbed to the top of the pitch fork handle and jump off. The fly was so full he still could not fly, so he fell to his death.

The moral of the story is dont fly off the handle when your full of crap.
