My Good Humor Page - A Tale of Two Woodpeckers

A Georgia woodpecker and a Kentucky woodpecker were arguing about which state had the toughest trees.  The Georgia woodpecker said that they had a tree that no woodpecker could peck.  The Kentucky woodpecker challenged him and promptly pecked a hole in the tree with no problem.  The Georgia woodpecker was in awe.

The Kentucky woodpecker then challenged the Georgia woodpecker to peck a tree in Kentucky that was absolutely un-peckable.  The Georgia woodpecker expressed confidence that he could do it and accepted the challenge.

After flying to Kentucky, the Georgia woodpecker successfully pecked the tree with no problem.  The two woodpeckers were now confused.  How is it that the Kentucky woodpecker was able to peck the Georgia tree and the Georgia woodpecker was able to peck the Kentucky tree when neither one was able to peck the tree in their own state?

After much woodpecker pondering, they both came to the same conclusion: Your pecker is always harder when you're away from home.
