An old man in Mississippi was sitting on his front porch watching the sun rise. He sees the neighbor`s kid walk by carrying something big under his arm. He yells out " Hey boy, whatcha got there ?"
Boy yells back "Roll of chicken wire."
Old man says "Whatcha gonna do with that?"
Boy says "Gonna catch me some chickens."
Old man yells "Ya damn fool, ya can`t catch no chickens with chicken wire !"
Boy just laughs and keeps on walking.
That evening at sunset the boy comes walking by and to the old man`s surprise he is dragging behind him the chicken wire with about 30 chickens caught in the wire.
Same time next morning the old man sees the boy walking by carrying something kind of round in his hand.He yells out " Whatcha got there ?"
Boy yells back "Duck tape"
Old man says " Whatcha gonna do with that?"
Boy says " Gonna catch me some some ducks"
Old man yells back "Ya damn fool, ya can`t catch no ducks with duck tape !"
Boy just laughs and keeps walking.
That night around sunset the boy walks by and to the old man`s amazement he is trailing behind him the unrolled roll of duck tape with about 35 ducks caught in it.
Same time next morning the old man sees the boy walking by carrying what looks like a long reed with something fuzzy on the end.
Old man says "Hey boy, whatcha got there ?"
Boy says 'It`s a pussy willow"
Old man yells " Wait up.....I`ll get my hat !!
