The rancher was bringing another bull onto the property, and three bulls heard it.
First Bull: “I have five years of experience here. I will not give any of my 100 cows to this new bull.
Second Bull: “I’ve earned my right to fifty cows in my three years here. All of my cows are mine to keep.
Third Bull: “You guys have only let me to have ten cows in the year that I’ve been here. Even though I’m not as big as you guys, I’m keeping all ten of my cows.
At that moment, the largest bull they have ever seen is pulled into the meadow by an 18-wheeler. His weight of 4,700 pounds puts stress on the steel ramp with every step.
“I think I can spare a few cows for our new friend,” said the first bull.
Second Bull: “To be honest, I have too many cows to care for.” I’m able to spare some. Of course, I’m not seeking a quarrel.
They turn to face the third bull, who is snorting, shaking his horns, and pawing the soil.
“Son, don’t be stupid—let him have some of your cows and live to tell about it,” said the first bull.
“Hell, he can have all my cows,” said the third bull. Just making sure he understands that I’m a bull.
In order to ensure that the new bull understands that he is a bull and not a cow, the smallest bull acts difficult in order to avoid keeping his cows.
