Uncle John, highly embarrassed, takes young little Johnny aside and
explains
that a certain decorum is required. "You should have said, 'The bull
is
surprising the cow'- not some filth you picked up in the City," he
says.
A few days later, little Johnny comes again as his uncle and aunt are
entertaining. "Uncle John! The bull is surprising the cows! The adults
share a knowing grin. Uncle John says, "Thank you little Johnny, but
surely
you meant to say the cow, not COWS. A bull cannot 'surprise' more than
one
cow at a time you know...." "Yes he can!" replies his obstinate nephew,
"He's fucking the horse!"
