An older gentelman was sitting on his porch enjoying his morning coffee and newspaper when a young boy walked by carrying a roll of chicken wire.
The older guy asked him, "Hey! Whatcha doin with that chicken wire?"
The boy replied, "I'm gonna go catch me some chickens!"
The man just laughed and continued to read his paper.
Some time later, he saw the boy again walking the other way with a half dozen or so chickens in a chicken wire cage. The man laughed again, and went about his day.
The next day, the man was sitting on his porch again when he saw the boy carrying a few rolls of duct tape.
He asked, "Hey! Where ya goin with that duct tape?"
The boy replied, "I'm gonna go catch me some ducks!"
Again, the man laughed, and continued to drink his coffee and read his newspaper.
Later on, the boy came by with some ducks taped together, having a hard time holding them all.
The man giggled at the site, and asked him if he needed help carrying them. The boy just said, "No thanks!", and went on his way.
The next morning, the man made sure he was outside to see what the boy was up to this time.
Sure enough, he came walking by holding some ***** willows.
The man jumped up and said, "Hey! Wait up! Lemme get my coat!"
