After the good Lord had finished creating the world, he came up to
man and offered him 20 years of sex. Man wanted more and objected,
but the Lord said no, I have only 20 years to give you.
The Lord then went to the Monkey and and offered him 20 years of sex.
The Monkey replied, "I only need ten years." When Man heard this,
he asked the Lord if he could have the Monkey's other ten years. The
Monkey agreed, so the Lord gave Man the Monkey's extra ten years.
The Lord next went to the Lion and offered him his 20 years of sex. The
Lion also replied that he only needed ten years. Once again, man found
out and asked the Lord, "Can I have the lion's extra ten years?" The
Lion agreed, so the Lord gave Man the Lion's extra years.
Lastly, the Lord came to the Donkey and offered him 20 years of sex.
Once again, the animal replied "I will be happy with only ten years."
Man of course found out and requested the extra years. The Lord
being kind and gracious, once again granted Man's request.
This is why man has 20 years of good sex, spends ten years monkeying
around, ten years liein' about it, and spends ten years making an
ass of himself.
