CREATION STORY
On the first day God created the cow. God said, "You must go to the
field with the farmer all day long, suffer under the sun, have calves
and give milk to support the farmer I will give you a life span of
sixty years."
The 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 God agreed.
On the second day, God created the dog. God 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."
The dog said, "That's too long to be barking. Give me ten years and
I'll give back the other ten."
So God agreed.
On the third day God created the monkey. God said, "Entertain people,
do monkey tricks, make them laugh. I'll give you a twenty year life
span."
Monkey said "Monkey tricks for twenty years? I don't think so. Dog
gave you back ten, so that's what I'll do too, okay?"
And God agreed again.
On the fourth day God created man. God said, "Eat, sleep, play, have
sex, 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 the cow gave back, and the ten the dog
gave back and the ten the monkey gave back. That makes eighty, okay?"
"Okay," said God. "You've got a deal."
SO: That is why for the first twenty years we eat, sleep, play, have
sex, 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.
