DANNY DONKEY SAT AT HOME IN HIS UNDERWEAR AND DRANK BEER. THE DOORBELL RANG.
DING DONG
"HELP SAVE THE PLANET," SAID THE PEOPLE AT HIS DOOR.
"HUH?" SAID DANNY DONKEY.
"SIGN A PETITION."
"ATTEND A RALLY."
"DISPLAY A BUMPER STICKER."
"I WOULD LIKE TO SIT AT HOME IN MY UNDERWEAR AND DRINK BEER," SAID DANNY DONKEY.
"BUT DOES THAT ACCOMPLISH?" ASKED THE PEOPLE.
"THE BEER THAT I AM HOLDING WILL GO FROM FULL TO EMPTY," SAID DANNY DONKEY, "AND I WILL BE HAPPY."
AND AT THAT, THE PEOPLE WEPT, FOR THEY REALIZED THE GENIUS THAT WAS DANNY DONKEY.
