Six Word Saturday ~~ An Experiment?

My Six Words:
This Week's FavoriteAn Aggie experiment   

Students, graduates, and staff at the Texas A&M College have a reputation of not having everything just exactly right.  These students and graduates are called "Aggies".  Aggies are the butt of many unkind jokes hinting of a less than 'normal' intelligence concerning everyday situations.

There is an Aggie joke saying that some Aggie graduates were having trouble concerning the growing of chickens.  Since none of the chickens planted seemed to be growing, one brilliant graduate decided to call his college professor.

When told of the problem, the professor asked how they were planting these chickens.  "Feet first" was the graduate's response, whereby the prof quickly and wisely responded, "Why don't you try planting them 'heads down'?"

As I snapped this picture I was reminded of the Aggie joke above.  It may be an Aggie clandestine operation of growing children.  Clearly these kids are planted 'head first.'

I'm linking with Cate (http://www.showmyface.com/) today for Six Week Saturday.  Not many are linking today as her Mr. Linky machine is not working.

  1. Okay, this was funny. Sorry I didn't comment on the last 6wS. I didn't have anything to say.

  2. Just popped in because I saw you on Mlissabeth's blog and wanted to say hello to the 'old timer'. :) :) Cate has been doing very poorly with 6WS lately and I think it's about time to wrap it up. I'm there most weeks unless I'm away from home. Love to the good lady!

    planting them 'heads down'?"

    Chuckles! Yes, Dr Jim, perhaps this might trigger off some thinking on them!
