One day two ducks went
for a walk down the country lane. By and by they happened by an old
friend of theirs, Mabel the chicken, who was standing beside the road
with a puzzled look on her face.
The younger duck asked as they approached, "What's the matter Mabel, did you forget where your going?".
The older duck leaned over to her companion and shushed her saying, "Don't egg her on, you know how gullible she is."
Now you know the jest of the story.
