Horse or Chicken
A retiring farmer in preparation for selling his land, needed to rid
his farm of animals. So he went to every house in his town.
To the houses where the man is the boss, he gave a horse. To the
houses where the woman is the boss, a chicken was given.
He got toward the end of the street and saw a couple outside
gardening. "Who's the boss around here?" he asked.
"I am." said the man.
"I have a black horse and a brown horse," the farmer said, "which one
would you like?"
The man thought for a minute and said, "The black one."
"No, no, no, get the brown one." the man's wife said.
"Here's your chicken." said the farmer.
