Our first Buckeye joke of the year  

A graduate from Ohio State, a graduate from Michigan and a pig were in

the hospital waiting room, each awaiting the birth of his first child.  

Suddenly, the lights went out. Fortunately, power was restored shortly

thereafter and the head nurse made her way to the waiting room.

"I've got good news and bad news, gentlemen and pig," she announced.

Despite the electrical outage, two healthy boys and one healthy piglet

have been delivered. However, si! nce the lights went out at the most

inopportune time, we aren't sure which first-born belongs to whom. The

only way we know to resolve the problem is to draw straws and have the

winner choose first."

The three proud papas agreed and the Ohio grad won the drawing. He was

escorted into the delivery room and looked at the three newborns for a

painstakingly long time. Finally, with head bowed, he scooped up the

piglet and headed for the door

"Sir, are you quite certain that you've made the right choice," the

nurse asked

"No, I'm not," replied the Buckeye grad. "But I just couldn't run the

risk of ending up with the Michigan kid."
