Two
football players were taking an important final exam.
If they
failed, they would be on academic probation and not allowed to play
in the Sugar Bowl the following week.
The
exam was fill-in-the-blank.
The
last question read, "Old MacDonald had a _________."
Bubba
was stumped. He had no idea of the answer. He knew he needed to
get this one right to be sure he passed.
Making
sure the professor wasn't watching, he tapped Tiny on the shoulder.
"Pssst.
Tiny. What's the answer to the last question?"
Tiny
laughed. He looked around to make sure the professor hadn't noticed
then he turned to Bubba.
"Bubba,
you're so stupid. Everyone knows Old MacDonald had a farm."
"Oh
yeah," said Bubba. "I remember now."
He picked
up his No. 2 pencil and started to write the answer in the blank.
He stopped.
Reaching to tap Tiny's shoulder again, he whispered, "Tiny,
how do you spell farm?"
"You
are really dumb, Bubba. That's so easy. Farm is spelled E-I-E-I-O."
