IF YOU HAVE EVER WONDERED WHY MEN LIE.
One day, while a woodcutter was cutting a branch of a tree above a
river, his axe fell into the river. When he cried out, the Lord
appeared and asked, "Why are you crying?"
The woodcutter replied that his axe has fallen into water, and he
needed the axe to make his living. The Lord went down in the water
and reappeared with a golden axe. "Is this your axe?" the Lord
asked.
The woodcutter replied, "No." The Lord again went down and came up
with a silver axe. "Is this your axe?" the Lord asked. Again, the
woodcutter replied, "No."
The Lord went down again and came up with an iron axe." Is t! his
your axe?" the Lord asked. "Yes", he replied. The Lord was pleased
with the man's honesty and gave him all three axes to keep, and the
woodcutter went home happy.
Some time later the woodcutter was walking with his wife along the
riverbank, and his wife fell into the river. When he cried out, the
Lord again appeared and asked him, "Why are you crying?" "Oh Lord,
my wife has fallen into the water!"
The Lord went down into the water and came up with sexy Angelina
Jolie. "Is this your wife?" the Lord asked. " Yes," cried the
woodcutter. The Lord was furious. "You lied! That is an
untruth!"
The woodcutter fell to his knees and cried, "Oh, forgive me, Lord.
It is a misunderstanding. You see, if I had said 'no' to Angelina
Jolie, You would have come up with Catherine Zeta-Jones.
Then, if I also said 'no'! to her, you would have come up with my
wife. Had I then said 'yes,' you would have given me all three.
Lord, I am a poor man, and am not able to take care of all three
wives, and I love my wife such that I don't want her to share me
with anyone, so THAT'S why I said yes to Angelina Jolie."
The moral of this story is: Whenever a man lies, it is for a good
and honorable reason, and for the benefit of others.. MOSTLY his
wife!
