wood n' glue

All this talk of wood reminds me of the story of two trees growing side by side in the forest. One a Birch tree and the other a Beech tree. Eventually over the years a young tree sprouted up between them. The Birch and the Beech each claimed the young tree as their offspring. They argued on and on about weather it was a son of a Birch or a son of a Beech until one day a woodpecker happened along. They made the request to the woodpecker to peck at the little tree and give them a decision if it was a son of a Birch or a son of a Beech. The woodpecker was happy to help out and pecked at the little tree. After a few minutes he flew up and gave his expert opinion which was ... it was neither a son of a Birch nor a son of a Beech... but indeed it was the sweetest piece of ash he had ever had his pecker in! ----------------------------------------------------- This mail sent via Golden Triangle Web-Mail http://www.golden.net
