Johnny Appleseed
My friend Kyle is a genius. Sure, sometimes he wears a pot on his head like Johnny Appleseed, but that’s another story. Last week he came up with the idea that he should get a horse. He figures he can train the horse to find its way home all by itself, thus avoiding any type of DUI charges. It would also save money on gas, assuming it could just eat the grass in his yard. The only potential problems I can see with this are the lack of any type of lights or turn signals, plus the horse would also need to learn to correctly interpret traffic lights and stop signs. And the parking issue. I haven’t seen many hitching posts around town lately. Still, though, you have to give the kid points for creativity. Also, he knows where to find the biggest potatos.
