The 100 MPH
Goat
Bill and Tom are out hunting, and as they’re walking
along they come upon a huge hole in the ground.
As they approach it they're amazed by the size of the hole.
Bill says, "Wow, that's some hole; I can't even see the
bottom. I wonder how deep it is."
Tom says, "I don't know, let's throw something down in it
and listen to see how long it takes to hit bottom."
Bill says, "There's this old car transmission here, give me
a hand and we'll throw it in and see".
So they picked
up the transmission and carried it over, and count; one, two and
three, and threw it in the hole.
They’re standing there listening and looking over the edge when
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 dive in head first.
While they’re standing there looking at each other and into the hole, 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 a goat around here anywhere, did you?"
The first hunter says, "Funny you should ask. We were just standing here
a minute ago and a goat came running out of those bushes doin' about a
hundred miles an hour and jumped headfirst into this hole here!"
The old farmer said, "That's impossible, I had him chained to an old transmission!"
