We all know the story of the three Bears, but I don’t think you ever heard this one about the two Bears and a Chicken. Come to think about it, no one has heard this story because it hasn’t been written yet.
This one starts out with two Bears, in the back seat of a taxi cab being driven by a smart-alec chicken. They had just arrived on a ship from across the great ocean to the west. The name of the place is not known to this writer, one is older, a big brother and the other is young, but not that much younger. The chicken ask them, where to. The older Bear says: to the hotel, The chicken replies, there are a thousand hotels in this town, some reach way up in the sky and some are close to the ground.
Some will cost up to three hundred dollars a night and some only a few dollars a night. Which do you want? We will take one for five dollars a night. Okay said the chicken, I’ll stop at some hotels and you go in and ask the price.
After they stopped at a dozen or so hotels, they still hadn’t found a room for five dollars a night. And they were all seventy or eighty dollars a night and you the customers were required to leave a tip for the hotel employees, Then the chicken said: I know of a place where you can stay for free. But we will have to cross the bridge over into New Jersey.
The Bears said great, take us there. When they arrived, the place had a sign saying (No Vacancy)! So the chicken drove the two Bears back across the bridge and to a place where they got a bed for fifty cents a night, Then the chicken handed the Bears a taxi bill, for two hundred and eighty five dollars.
After a few shots were fired at the chicken, as he was running down the street and was out of sight, the bears drove the cab to a car dealer and sold the cab to that dealer for one hundred and five dollars. Just because these two Bears came from the country, didn’t mean they were stupid! They took that money and went to a bar to get some drinks and it wasn’t long before the money was gone.
When they left the bar, they were staggering in the street and the local police picked them up for being drunk and they received a free night in a cell. The next day they were set free and within an hour they were again arrested for being vagrant.
The judge was having a good day, so he had a police car drive them to the city limits, and sent them on their way.
Arriving back in the country, they stopped at the Trading Post and tied the mule to the hitching rail. Then they went inside for a cool one. They were telling stories about the big city and soon there was a number of people listening to them.
Time has gone by and it is now twenty years later, and one of the Bears, the oldest one, has passed on. The other Bear, who is now Older, is still telling stories about the Big City, Only he collects a nickel per head or two children under ten for a nickel. They keep coming to the trading Post each night to hear the stories over and over again. Drinks cost extra.
