外子的性格與特質中, 有一點我很覺得很可愛的就是他有一顆赤子般的心。可能他過去曾經是小學老師, 經常和小朋友們在一起的緣故, 一些小孩子可能喜歡的東西和笑話, 他也很感興趣。

下面這個 “Catch that and paint it green ” 的笑話就是他告訴我的。

These three guys are traveling across country when they come to a farmhouse. They ask the farmer if they can spend the night and he says that they can stay in the barn, just not to walk out behind it.
Well, during the night the first guy walks out behind the barn to use the rest room and falls down in a huge hole in the ground. He gets up and sees a demon. The demon looks at him and says: “If you can tell me to do some thing that I cannot do, I’ll let you go.” The man says: “Well, get all of the trees in the world in here.” The Demon says “alright.” He flicks his fingers and puff: all of the trees in the world are in the hole.
Well, a little later the second guy goes and looks for the first guy. He walks out behind the barn and falls in the hole. The demon looks at him and says: “If you can tell me to do something that I cannot do, I’ll let you and your friend go.” The man scratches his head and says: “Ok get all of the birds in the world down here.” The demon flicks his fingers and puff: all of the birds in the world are in that hole.
Well, a lot later the third guy walks out looking for the other two and falls in the same hole. The demon looks at him and says: “If you can tell me one thing that I cannot do, I’ll let you and both of your friends go.” The man sits down and raises up on one hip and farts. He looks at the demon and says: “Catch that and paint it green! ”

有三個人在做跨國旅行的時候來到了一間農舍。他們問農夫, 他們是否可以在那裡過夜。他說他們可以待在糧倉裡, 就是不要走到糧倉的後面去。
結果, 到了晚上的時候, 第一個傢伙走到糧倉的後面去上洗手間時掉進地上的一個大洞裡。他起來後發現了一個惡魔。惡魔看著他, 說:「如果你能叫我做一件我做不到的事, 我就讓你走!」那個人說:「好, 把世界上所有的樹統統弄到這裡來!」惡魔說:「好!」只見它手指一彈, 轟的一陣煙霧, 世界上所有的樹統統跑到這個洞裡去了。
隨後, 第二個傢伙出去找第一個人。他走到糧倉後面,結果也掉進了那個洞裡。惡魔看著他, 說:「如果你能叫我做一件我做不到的事, 我就讓你和你的朋友走!」那個人抓了頭說:「好, 把世界上所有的鳥統統弄到這裡來!」惡魔說:「好!」它手指一彈, 轟的一陣煙霧, 世界上所有的鳥統統跑到這個洞裡去了。
過了很久, 第三個傢伙出去找另外那二個人, 結果也掉到同一個洞裡。惡魔看著他, 說:「如果你能叫我做一件我做不到的事, 我就讓你和你的二個朋友走!」那個人坐下來, 翹起一邊屁屁後放屁了。他看著惡魔說:「把剛剛那個東西(屁)抓起來漆成綠色的!」
