Two guys are walking in a field and come upon a well. One guy picks up a rock, walks over to the edge of the well, and throws it down there. He stands there waiting to hear a noise: 1….2….3….4….5 seconds and no sound at all. He turns to his buddy and says, “Dang, that’s one deep-### well.”
As they start to leave, the other guy notices a rusted out, hunk of junk transmission lying in the weeds a few yards away. The two guys look at each other, nod, walk over to the transmission, and proceed to drag it over to the well. With some effort, they lift it over the edge an throw it down, waiting to hear a sound: 1….2….3….4….5 seconds and nothing. No sound at all. First guy turns to the other and says, “DANG! That is one deep well!”
Just as he says this, from out of nowhere, a goat comes charging at a full sprint right at them. The two guys are barely able to jump out of the way, as the goat dives down the well. Scared and shaken, realizing how lucky they were the goat didn’t knock them into the well, they continue their journey through the field.
After walking about a quarter mile, they come upon a farmer. They wave, and the farmer calls out to them, “Hey fellas. Have you seen my goat?”
The first guy responds, “Your goat?! He damn near killed us a few minutes ago…almost knocked us into a well back there!”
Farmer says, “No, that couldn’t have been my goat. He was tied to a transmission.”
