tart talking to the people there。
Dad was chatting up a farmer’s wife once,when I discovered this pig。。。
It was a nice pig。 But it only had three legs。 The right back leg was wooden! Well; I was as curious as could be; so I asked the farmer:

“And the pig got its leg burned up in the fire?”
“Nope。 Pig got out just fine。 Matter of fact; he even went back in and saved the kids。”

“Boy; a pig like that; you don’t eat all in one sitting!”

“那你是怎样让美国人跳的?”
“很简单,”船长说,“我告诉他,他已经上了保险了。”
