There was a jester who amused the king greatly with his many
witty jokes, puns and wordplays, usually poking fun at the rival
kings and knights.
However, one day, the jester inadvertantly threw a verbal barb at
the king. The king was a petty and malicious one, was incensed.
Immediately, he ordered the jester to face his biggest and most
brutal knight in a fight to the death.
The jester was in a fix. On the jousting grounds, he was
ill-equipped to fight the giant hulk of a knight.
However, he went to the field armed only with his wit while the
knight was fully armoured and armed atop his armoured
charger.
The jester, instead of trying to fight, started shouting out bawdy
limericks and wordplay.
The knight, instead of charging and attacking, was reduced to fits
of uncontrollable laughter.
Pressing his advantage, the jester kept at it with the bawdy
jests... so much so that the knight fell off his horse in a surge
of mirth and crashed to his death.
The jester was proclaimed the winner and survived.
Moral of the story: The PUN is mightier than the
sword..
