THE CRACKER BOX
IT SEEMS THAT THERE WERE TWO ANTS OUT FOR A WALK ONE DAY
AND THEY FOUND THEMSELVES IN A KITCHEN. ALL OF A SUDDEN,
ONE ANT STARTED RUNNING VERY FAST ACROSS A BOX OF
SALTINE CRACKERS. THE OTHER RAN AS FAST AS HE COULD
AND CAUGHT HIS FRIEND. "WHY ARE YOU GOING SO FAST
ACROSS THE BOX?" HE WANTED TO KNOW. "DIDN'T YOU SEE
WHAT IT SAID BACK THERE?" "NO." "IT SAID 'TEAR
ACROSS DOTTED LINE.'"
Submitter comment:
INFORMANT HEARD IT AT HER SCHOOL, BUT DOESN'T KNOW
FROM WHOM.
