The Sparrow
Posted: Mon May 07, 2007 6:06 pm
Once upon a time, there was a sparrow who decided to not fly south for the winter. However, soon the weather had turned so cold that he decided to fly south. In a short time, ice began to form on his wings, and he fell to earth nearly frozen solid, landing in a barnyard.
A cow passed by where the sparrow had fallen and crapped on the little bird. The sparrow thought it was the end, but the manure warmed him and defrosted his wings. Happy and warm, the sparrow started to sing. Just then, a large cat came by and heard the chirping. The cat cleared away the manure, found the chirping bird, and promptly ate him.
There are three morals to this story:
1. Everyone who gets you in the shit is not necessarily your enemy.
2. Everyone who gets you out of shit is not necessarily your friend.
3. If you’re warm and happy in the shit, don’t make a song about it.
