>Why Men Lie!Why Men Lie!
>One day, while a woodcutter was cutting a branch of a tree above a river,
>his axe fell into the river.
>
>When he cried out, the Lord appeared and asked, "Why are you crying?"
>
>The woodcutter replied that his axe has fallen into water, and he needed 
>the
>axe to make his living.
>
>The Lord went down into the water and reappeared with a golden axe.
>
>"Is this your axe?" the Lord asked.
>
>The woodcutter replied, "No."
>
>The Lord again went down and came up with a silver axe.  "Is this your 
>axe?"
>the Lord asked.
>
>Again, the woodcutter replied, "No."
>
>The Lord went down again and came up with an iron axe.  "Is this your axe?"
>the Lord asked.
>
>The woodcutter replied,   "Yes."
>
>The Lord was pleased with the man's honesty and gave him all three axes to
>keep, and the
>woodcutter went home happy.
>
>Some time later the woodcutter was walking with his wife along the
>riverbank, and his wife fell
>into the river.
>
>When he cried out, the Lord again appeared and asked him, "Why are you
>crying?"
>
>"Oh Lord, my wife has fallen into the water!"
>
>The Lord went down into the water and came up with Jennifer Lopez.
>
>"Is this your wife?" the Lord asked. "Yes," cried the woodcutter.
>
>The Lord was furious.   "You lied! That is an untruth!"
>
>The woodcutter replied, "Oh, forgive me, my Lord. It is a misunderstanding.
>You see, if I had
>said 'no' to Jennifer Lopez, you would have come up with Catherine
>Zeta-Jones.  Then if I also
>said 'no' to her, you would have come up with my wife.
>
>Had I then said 'yes,' you would have given me all three.  Lord, I am a 
>poor
>man, and am not
>able to take care of all three wives, so THAT'S why I said yes to Jennifer
>Lopez."
>
>The moral of this story is:  Whenever a man lies, it is for a good and
>honorable reason, and for
>the benefit of others.
>
>That's our story, and we're sticking to it!
