1. Passwords
are not only for those sitting in front of computers. Even horses use
them. A stallion (a male horse) was trained to obey them: ‘THANKGOD’ is
for starting the ride and ‘MYGOD’ for stopping him. Soon the horse got
so used to them that any other command, verbal or otherwise, failed to
drive him. One day the horseman was riding his horse. Suddenly it
started galloping towards a nearby hill. Obviously, the horseman forgot
the password for stopping it. Soon the horse reached the top of the
hill. The horseman, while still astride, saw a deep valley in front of
his eyes. In a couple of minutes they were about to fall in it. He
shouted ‘My God’ out of fear and the horse has stopped. Heaving a sigh
of relief, the horseman said “Thank God!”......
2. The
second one is again about a horse, in a stable this time, and it was a
mare (For a change, it is a female horse.). The mare fell sick and her
owner brought an animal doctor (Vet) to examine her. The vet declared
she was affected by a virus and advised some medicine to be administered
for three days. If she is not cured by then, it would be better for the
owner to terminate her, as otherwise the virus may affect his other
horses. A pig heard this. It came to the horse lying on the floor and
told her lovingly that it is better she got healthy back again, as
otherwise she will be put to death. Also next day, the pig came and told
the same thing to the horse, but she did not move. On the 3rd day the
vet visited the stable and declared the horse as too ill and told the
owner to put her to sleep in a couple of hours. The pig came to the
horse and yelled at her, 'Are you a donkey, wake up, now or never, as
otherwise you will be killed by noon. The next minute she started
galloping. Seeing her on the run, the owner felt very happy and shouted
to his servants, " Kill the pig for a feast and celebrate, our horse
is cured".
