Two North Dakota good ol’ boys are out hunting, and as they are
walking along they came upon a huge hole in the ground.
They approach it and are amazed at the size of it. The first hunter
says, "Wow, that's some hole, I can't even see the bottom. I wonder how
deep it is?"The second hunter says," I don't know. Let's throw
somethin' down there, listen and see how long it takes to hit bottom."
The first hunter says, "Hey, there's an old automobile gearbox over
there. Give me a hand, we'll throw it in and see."So they pick it up
and carry it over and count one, two, three and heave it in the hole.
They are standing there listening, looking over the edge, when they
hear a rustling behind them. As they turn around, they see a goat come
crashing through the underbrush, run up to the hole and, without
hesitation, jump in headfirst.
While they are standing there staring at each other in amazement,
peering into the hole, trying to figure out what that was all about, an
old farmer saunters up."Say there," says the farmer, "You fellers
didn't happen to see my goat around here anywhere, did you ?"
The first hunter says, "Funny you should ask, but we were just
standing here a minute ago and a goat came running out of the bushes
doin' bout a hunnert miles an hour and jumped . . . headfirst into this
here hole!!!!"The old farmer said, "Naw, that's impossible . . .I had
him chained to a old gearbox."
