Good Fun
In October, the
Indians asked their Chief if the coming winter was
going to be cold or not.
Not really knowing the answer, the chief
replied that the winter will be
cold and that the members of the village
should collect firewood to be
prepared.
Being a good leader, he then went to a phone booth, called the
National Weather Service and asked, "Is this winter to be cold?"
The man
on the phone responded, "This winter is indeed going to be
very cold."
So the Chief went back to encourage his people to collect even more
wood
to
be prepared. A week later he called the National Weather Service
again, and
asked again, "Is it going to be a very cold winter?"
"Yes," the man replied, "it's going to be a very cold winter." The
Chief
went back to his people and ordered them to go out and
bring back every
scrap of wood they could find.
Two weeks later he called the National
Weather Service again.
"Are you absolutely sure that this winter is going to
be very cold?"
"Absolutely" the man replies, "the Indians are collecting
firewood
like crazy.
