Moral of the Story

One day at the end of class little Gunner's teacher had
the class go home and think of a story and then
conclude with the moral of that story.

The following day the teacher asked for the first
volunteer to tell a story; little Suzy raised her hand.
"My dad owns a farm and every Sunday we load the
chicken eggs on the truck and drive into town to sell
them at the market. Well, one Sunday we hit a big bump
and all the eggs flew out of the basket and onto the
road." The teacher asked for the moral of the story.
Suzy replied, "Don't keep all your eggs in one basket."

Next was little Lucy. "Well my dad owns a farm, too,
and every weekend we take the chicken eggs and put them
in the incubator. Last weekend only 8 of the 12 eggs
hatched." The teacher asked for the moral of the story.
Lucy replied, "Don't count your chickens before they're
hatched."

Last was little Gunner. "My uncle Steve was a Marine;
the helicopter he was in was shot down over enemy
territory. As the only survivor, all he had was a
bottle of whiskey, a machine gun and a machete. First
he drank the whiskey so the enemy couldn't enjoy it.
Unfortunately, he was quickly surrounded by a 100
soldiers. He shot 70 with his machine gun, but ran out
of bullets, so he pulled out his machete and killed 20
more. The blade on his machete broke, so he killed the
last ten with his bare hands." Teacher looked in shock
at Gunner and asked if there was any possible moral to
his story. "Yes sir", Gunner replied, "Don't screw with
Uncle Steve when he's been drinking."
