Now I understand you men better. You're always good and honorable, heh? I feel so much better knowing that. 
<br />Why men lie: <br />> > <br />> >One day, while a woodcutter was cutting a branch of a tree above a river, <br />> >his <br />> >axe fell into the river. When he cried out, the Lord appeared and asked, <br />> >"Why <br />> >are you crying?" The woodcutter replied that his axe has fallen into water, <br />> >and he needed the axe to make his living. The Lord went down into the water <br />> >and <br />> >reappeared with a golden axe. "Is this your axe?" the Lord asked. The <br />> >woodcutter replied, "No." The Lord again went down and came up with a <br />> >silver axe. "Is <br />> >this your axe?" the Lord asked. Again, the woodcutter replied, "No." The <br />> >Lord <br />> >went down again and came up with an iron axe. "Is this your axe?" the Lord <br />> >asked. The woodcutter replied, "Yes." The Lord was pleased with the man's <br />> >honesty and gave him all three axes to keep, and the woodcutter went home <br />> >happy. <br />> >Some time later the woodcutter was walking with his wife along the <br />> >riverbank, and <br />> >his wife fell into the river. When he cried out, the Lord again appeared <br />> >and <br />> >asked him, "Why are you cry! ing?" "Oh Lord, my wife has fallen into the <br />> >water!" The Lord went down into the water and came up with Jennifer Lopez. <br />> >"Is this <br />> >your wife?" the Lord asked. "Yes," cried the woodcutter. The Lord was <br />> >furious. "You lied! That is an untruth!" The woodcutter replied, "Oh, <br />> >forgive me, my <br />> >Lord. It is a misunderstanding. You see, if I had said 'no' to Jennifer <br />> >Lopez, <br />> >You would have come up with Catherine Zeta-Jones. Then if I also said 'no' <br />> >to <br />> >her, you would have come up with my wife. Had I then said 'yes,' you would <br />> >have given me all three. Lord, I am a poor man, and am not able to take <br />> >care of <br />> >all three wives, so THAT'S why I said yes to Jennifer Lopez." <br />> > <br />> >The moral of this story is: Whenever a man lies, it is for a good and <br />> >honorable reason, and for the benefit of others. That's our story, and <br />> >we're sticking <br />> >to it.
