this is better told but here goes..
Salesman is traveling a country road, and spies a castle type doll house in a front yard. There is a white picket fence around it and the house is decorated in a very lavish fashion. Setting in side the fence is a pig and the pig has three legs and a peg on the forth limb. The man smiles to himself and says inwardly see something new and strange everyday.
The site however puzzles him and he has some time to kill so he turns the car around and pulls into the farmers yard. After pleasentries
he asked the farmer why the pig has three legs. The farmer pulls a pipe from his pocket taps it on his coveralls and takes a seat on a rocker on the porch. He lights the pipe and draws a smoke and says will that pig is special..why when my daughter was a younin she was playing with a beach ball and it rolled out into the road, she not knowing any better ran after it...that pig saw what was going on and ran into the road and pulled her to safety.
The salesman said will I did not know that pigs were that smart but that does not tell me why its hs only three legs.
The farmer pulls on his pipe again and says thats not all..one time I was plowing in the fields and my house caught fire from a ember falling out of the potbelly stove...that pig saw what was goijng on and got a bucket of water from the well and carried it in and tipped on the floor and put the fire out.
The salesman was over come with amazment and remarked how incredible that pig was but said again that did not explain the legs.
The farmer rocked a couple of times pulling on his pipe and said thats not all...went to town one day to get supplies and some robbers came and were carrying my stuff away..that pig saw what was going on and butted them to the ground and laid on them until I got home and caught them.
The salesman was again impressed with the pigs intellegent ways but remarked again the stories did not explain the pigs missing limb.
The farmer rocked one more time got uop stretched his tired old bones and said...well that pig has been so good to my family over the years I just could not bring myself to eat it all at once......
