<br />Indian Learning Lesson<br /> <br />A missionary who had spent years showing a tribe of natives how to farm and<br />build things to be self-sufficient gets word that he is to return home. He<br />realizes that the one thing he never taught the natives was how to speak<br />English, so he takes the chief and starts walking in the forest. He points<br />to a tree and says to the chief, &amp;quot;This is a tree.&amp;quot; The chief looks at the<br />tree and grunts, &amp;quot;Tree.&amp;quot; The missionary is pleased with the response. They<br />walk a little farther and the padre points to a rock and says, &amp;quot;This is a<br />rock.&amp;quot; Hearing this, the chief looks and grunts, &amp;quot;Rock.&amp;quot; The padre is really<br />getting enthusiastic about the results when he hears a rustling in the<br />bushes. As he peeks over the top, he sees a couple in the midst of heavy<br />romantic activity. The padre is really flustered and quickly responds,<br />&amp;quot;Riding a bike.&amp;quot;<br /><br />The chief looks at the couple briefly, pulls out his blow gun and kills<br />them! The padre goes ballistic and yells at the chief that he has spent<br />years teaching the tribe how to be civilized and kind to each other! How<br />could he just kill these people in cold blood that way?<br /><br />The chief replied, &amp;quot;My bike&amp;quot;.<br /><br /><br />Have a good day and keep an eye on your bike.
