A little boy comes down to breakfast. Since they live on a farm, his mother
asks if he had done his chores. "Not yet", said the little boy. His mother
tells him no breakfast until he does his chores. Well, he's a little
upset, so he goes to feed the chickens, and he kicks a chicken. He goes to
feed the cows, and he kicks a cow. He goes to feed the pigs, and he kicks
a pig. He goes back in for breakfast and his mother gives him a bowl of
dry cereal.
"How come I don't get any eggs and bacon? Why don't I have any milk in my
cereal?" he asks. Well, his mother says, I saw you kick a chicken, so you
don't get any eggs for a week. I saw you kick the pig, so you don't get
any bacon for a week either. I saw you kick the cow so for a week you aren't getting any milk.
Just then, his father comes down for breakfast and kicks the cat
halfway across the kitchen. The little boy looks up at his mother with a smile,
and says, "You gonna tell him, or should I?"
