Along they come upon a huge hole in the ground.
They approach it and are amazed by the depth of it.
The first hunter says, "Wow, that's some hole! I can't even see the bottom- must be an old mine shaft.
I wonder how deep it is."
The second hunter says," I don't know. Let's throw something down and
Listen and see how long it takes to hit bottom."
The first hunter says, "There's an old truck transmission over there.
Give me a hand and we'll throw it in and see."
So they pick it up and carry it over and count one, and two and three, and
Throw it in the hole. They are standing there listening and looking over the
edge and they hear a rustling in the brush behind them. As they turn around
They see a goat come crashing through the brush, run up to the hole and with
No hesitation, jump in headfirst.
While they are standing there looking at each other, looking in the hole and
Trying to figure out what that was all about, an old farmer walks 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' about a hunnert
miles an hour and jumped headfirst into this hole here!"
The old farmer said, "That's impossible. I had him chained to a transmission."
