The big hole...it's deep too! 🍯🍮🍭❕

Two idiots- Zack and James and were walking together in a field. After a bit of walking they came across a big hole in the ground. The hole was so big and deep they couldn’t see the bottom.

Zack: How deep do you think the hole is?”

James: “I’m not sure- let’s throw a rock in and listen for when it hits the bottom.”

Zack: “great idea- I’ll grab a rock”

Zack grabs a rock and tosses it in the center of the hole. They never hear the rock hit the bottom.

Zack: “man that hole must be deep! Let’s get something bigger to toss in!”

James: “great idea! I’ll be right back!”

James is gone for a long time- finally after an hour of waiting Zack sees James returning dragging an anvil towards the hole. Zack helps him carry this heavy anvil towards the hole. Together they heave the anvil down the hole. They listen for the sound. They hear a faint “clop..clop…clop” The noise is steadily picking up in volume and speed. Clop Clop. CLOPCLOPCLOOCLOP. Suddenly a goat is flying towards James and Zack. It jumps right down the hole. Astonished- James and Zack are dumbfounded.

About this time they hear a farmer call out “Calvin! Calvviiiin!!”

“What’s the matter?” Zack asks the farmer??

Farmer: “I’m looking for Calvin!”

Zack and James start helping the farmer locate Calvin. After 20 minutes of no luck- James asks “so what does Calvin look like?”

Farmer: Calvin is my pet goat.

Zack: you are never going to believe this but we just saw that goat jump down the big hole!

Farmer: no that can’t be- that’s impossible.

James: why is that? How come you don’t believe us?

Farmer: cause Calvin was tied to a anvil!
