Kind of hokey, read at your own risk.


> 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."

Wipe that smile off your face.
