THE CAMEL AND THE PIG
A
CAMEL said, "Nothing like being tall! See how tall I am." A pig who heard these words said, "Nothing like being short; see how short I am!"
The camel said, "Well, if I fail to prove the truth of what I said, I will give you my hump."
The pig said, "If I fail to prove the truth of what I have said, I will give up my snout."
