A young man walking along a country road asked someone where he could get bed and breakfast and an evening meal. He was directed to a farm down the road and told to ask the farmer to let him see his wonderful pig. After dinner the young man asked if he could see the farmer’s wonderful pig and was taken out to its sty. The farmer told him how one night a fire broke out in the house. The pig on smelling the smoke battered down the door of its sty and raced across the farm yard, knocked down the house door, then charged upstairs to wake up the family, thus saving their lives. ‘Well’, said the young man, ‘that truly is a most wonderful pig, but tell me why does it only have three legs’? The farmer looked a little puzzled and replied, ‘well, if you had such a wonderful pig as this one, would you eat it all at once’?
