Title: Two Trees
Post by: Dingo on July 15, 2007, 02:43:43 AM
Two tall trees, a birch and a beech, are growing in
the woods. A small tree begins to grow between them, and 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. He
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."

Read ash as arse  and pecker as American connotation, and it all becomes clear:D

Hard to read quickly but amusing.
