    Once upon a time a man was playing cards in a neighbours house with a couple of other lads.

    (continued from previous page)
    The sow stopped there because they say a sow cannot cross water. As the sow was returning back she met an ass and car and a man inside in it. The sow got under the axle of the car and capsized it. The man was drunk and he fell under the body of the car and it killed him.
