    because a white hen cant lay a black egg and a black hen can lay a white egg. Who was the first man to travel around the world. The man in the moon. Ink ank under bank ten drawn four. A woman milking a cow. Why does a cow look over the wall, because she cant look under it. Round the school and round the school and never touches a bot of the school. The air.
