Johnny was a very inquisitve 10-year old. Playing in the
garden, he
noticed an earthworm in his hole. So he pulled the worm
out of his hole,
and started playing with it. But after a while, he got
tired of this worm,
so he decides that it's time for the worm to go home.
Home being, of
course, his hole in the ground...
So, after an hour or so, he still can't get the worm into
his hole.
Johnny's grandfather was watching him all the time,
interested to see what
would be the outcome of this.
He walks to Johnny and tells him : "Johnny my boy, if you
get that worm
back in his hole, I'll give you ten bucks ", so as to see
the end of this
story. So Johnny thinks for a while, runs into the house,
and returns
with... a bottle of hairspray. He sprays that little
worm with hairspray
till its as solid as a welding rod, and neatly slips it
back into the
hole, earning himself ten bucks.
Next morning, grandpa walks into the room, and gives
Johnny a
hundred bucks.
Johnny looks at him and says, "But grandpa, you already
gave me ten
bucks!"
Grandpa looks at him and says, "This comes from your
grandma..."
