Seth's List for 05/02/03
Two tall trees, a birch and a beech, are growing in
the woods. A small tree begins to grow between them. The beech says
to the birch:
"Is that a son of a beech or a son of a birch?"
The birch says he cannot tell.
Just then a woodpecker lands on the sapling. The birch
says, "Woodpecker, you are a tree expert. Can you tell if that
is a son of a beech or a son of a birch?"
The woodpecker takes a taste of the small tree and
replies:
"It is neither a son of a beech nor a son of
a birch. It is, however, the best piece of ash I have ever put my
pecker in!".
