  1. A Story

    Share Share Post
    Two men were living together and one night they went to a dance and while they were away the goats came in and went under the bed. When the two men went to bed they heard the goat 'ma-a-ing' under the bed in the night time. They thought it was the devil. So they jumped out of bed and through the window in their shirts.
