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 had fallen into the water,

and he needed the axe to make his living.

The Lord went down into the water and reappeared with a golden

axe.?

"Is this your gold axe?" the Lord asked.

The woodcutter replied, "No."

The Lord went down into the water and reappeared with a silver

axe.?

"Is this your silver axe?" the Lord asked.

Again, the woodcutter replied, "No."

The Lord went down again and came up with an iron axe.

"Is this your axe?" the Lord asked.

The woodcutter replied, "Yes."

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 Jennifer Lopez.

"Is this your wife?" the Lord asked.

"Yes," cried the woodcutter.

The Lord was furious.

"You lied! That is an untruth!"

The woodcutter replied, "Oh, please forgive me, my Lord! It is a

misunderstanding!

You see, if I had said 'no' to Jennifer Lopez, You would havecome 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,so

THAT'S why I said 'yes' to Jennifer Lopez."

The moral of this story is:

Whenever a man lies, it is for a good and honorable reason, and for the benefit

of others. That's our story, and we're sticking to it!
