A stranger was seated next to Little Johnny on the plane when the
stranger turned to the Little Johnny and said, "Let's talk. I've heard that
flights will go quicker if you strike up a conversation with your fellow
passenger."
Little Johnny, who had just opened his book, closed it slowly, and said to
the stranger, "What would you like to discuss?" "Oh, I don't know," said
the stranger. "How about nuclear power?"
"OK," said Little Johnny. "That could be an interesting topic. But let me
ask you a question first.
"A horse, a cow, and a deer all eat grass. The same stuff. Yet a deer
excretes little pellets, while a cow turns out a flat patty, and a horse
produces clumps of dried grass. Why do you suppose that is?"
"Jeez," said the stranger. "I have no idea."
"Well, then," said Little Johnny, "How is it that you feel qualified to
discuss nuclear power when you don't know shit?"
