Originally posted by elf So there's these two tall trees, a birch and a beech, growing in the forest. A little sapling is growing in between them, and so the birch says to the beech, "Is that a son of a beech or a son of a birch?" The beech replies, "I don't know, can't rightly tell from here..." Just then a woodpecker flits nearby, and the birch calls out, "Hello, woodpecker! You being an expert on trees and all, would you please fly on down there and tell us if that there sprig is a son of a beech or a son of a birch?"
"Why, sure!" says the woodpecker, and he flies on down, and takes a little taste of the sapling, and he replies, "That, dear sirs, is neither a son of a beech, nor a son of a birch - it is, however, the best peice of ash I've ever put my pecker in!"

I enjoyed that Elf.Thanks.Good laugh.
