Once upon a time, there was a farmer named Jake who had a yoke of oxen. One day, he took a nap under a tree but suddenly woke up because one of his oxen poked him with its horn. He rubbed his eyes, sat up and spoke to the oxen, "What's wrong? Why did you poke me?" The oxen replied, "We're tired of pulling this yoke every day. Can't we take a break?" Jake thought for a moment and said, "Alright, let's play a joke on each other."
So, the farmer and the oxen played jokes on each other until they were laughing so hard that the farmer nearly choked on his laughter. Then, the farmer told another joke that broke the oxen into fits of laughter. They laughed so hard that the yoke broke in two. From that day on, the farmer and the oxen became best friends, and they never had to pull a yoke again. They spent their days telling jokes and having fun. The end.
