Why men Lie!!!
One day, while a woodcutter was cutting a branch of a tree above a river, his axe fell into the river.
When he cried out, God appeared and asked," Why are you crying?"
The woodcutter replied that his axe has fallen into water.
Then God went down into the water and reappeared with a golden axe.
"Is this your axe?" God asked.
The woodcutter replied, "No."
[Wait, I know that you are thinking that you have already heard this story (: Just keep on reading... You shall see]
God again went down and came up with a silver axe. "Is this your axe?" he asked.
Again, the woodcutter replied, "No."
God went down again and came up with an iron axe. "Is this your axe?" God asked.
The woodcutter replied," Yes."
God was pleased with the man's honesty and gave him all three axes to keep, and the woodcutter went home happily.
One day while he was walking with his wife along the riverbank, the woodcutter's wife fell into the river.
When he cried out, God again appeared and asked him, "Why are you crying?"
"Oh God , my wife has fallen into the water!"
God went down into the water and came up with Jennifer Lopez. "Is this your wife?" he asked.
"Yes," cried the woodcutter.
God was furious. "You cheat! That is an untruth!"
The woodcutter replied, "Oh, forgive me God . It is a misunderstanding. You see, if I said 'no' to Jennifer Lopez, You will come up with Catherine Zeta-Jones. Then if I also say 'no' to her, You will come up with my wife, and I will say 'yes,' and then all three will be given to me. But God, I am a poor man and I will not be able to take care of all three wives, so that's why I said 'yes' this time."
The moral of the story is whenever a man lies, it is for an honorable and useful reason...
tsk..tsk... (:
Just for laughs :D
One afternoon a wealthy lawyer was riding in his limousine when he saw two men along the roadside eating grass.
Disturbed, he ordered his driver to stop and he got out to investigate.
He asked one man, "Why are you eating grass?"
"We don't have any money for food," the poor man replied.
"We have to eat grass."
"Well, then, you can come with me to my house and I'll feed you", the lawyer said.
"But sir, I have a wife and two children with me. They are over there, under that tree".
"Bring them along," the lawyer replied.
Turning to the other poor man he stated, "You come with us also."
The second man, in a pitiful voice then said, "But sir, I also have a wife and SIX children with me!"
"Bring them all, as well," the lawyer answered.
They all entered the car, which was no easy task, even for a car as large as the limousine was.
Once underway, one of the poor fellows turned to the lawyer and said, "Sir, you are too kind. Thank you for taking all of us with you."
The lawyer replied, "Glad to do it. You'll really love my place; the grass is almost 1 metre high!"
Lesson : Don't trust kind lawyers :-)
Hope that you guys enjoy the two "moral" stories (:
Have a nice day people!!
