One afternoon an Senator was riding in his limousine when he
saw two men along the roadside eating grass.
Disturbed, he ordered his driver to stop and he got out to
investigate.
He asked one man, 'Why are you eating grass?'
'We don't have any money for food,' the poor man replied. 'We have
to eat grass.'
'Well, then, you can come with me to my house and I'll feed you,'
the Senator said.
'But sir, I have a wife and two children with me. They are over
there, under that tree.'
'Bring them along,' the Senator replied.
Turning to the other poor man he stated, 'You come with us, also..'
The second man, in a pitiful voice, then said, 'But sir, I also have
a wife and three children with me!'
'Bring them all, as well,' the Senator answered
They all entered the car, which was no easy task, even for a car as
large as the limousine was.
Once underway, one of the poor fellows turned to the Senator and
said, 'Sir, you are too kind.'
'Thank you for taking all of us with you.'
The Senator replied, 'Glad to do it.
You'll really love my place..
The grass is almost a foot high.'
