A farmer was tired of always losing at the State Fair, so he decided that he would go after the Blue Ribbon in the pig category in a new way. Months before the arrival of the fair, he put a cork in the pigs rear end to keep him from going to the bathroom. Sure enough, the pig swelled up to enormous proportions, and he won the coveted prize hands down.

Now he had to figure out how to bring the poor pig some relief. He noticed an organ grinder standing near the show tent, and offered him $20 to borrow his monkey. After a short cork removal training session, he sent the monkey in to take care of business. In order to observe what happened, the farmer stood 20 yards away, had his son stand 40 yards away, and a hired hand 60 yards away.

The monkey pulled out the cork, and the expected happened.

After things had settled down, the 3 men got back together to share what they had observed. The hired hand went first "All I saw was poop flying everywhere!!!" Next, the farmers son " At 40 yards, all I saw was poop flying everywhere too!!!"

Then the farmer stepped forward, " All I could see was the monkey trying to put the cork back in!":)
