ok. a bear was talking to a giraffe one day:
"how do you get such a long neck giraffe? its really cool, adn i want one."

"you have to rub your neck with lotion every night before you go to bed. after a while it'll grow."

the bear takes the advice. a year later when he wasnt getting any results, he goes back to talk to the giraffe:

"its been a year and my neck hasnt grown any. whats wrong?"

"what kind of lotion are you using?"

"crisco"

"well no wonder, thats shortening!" http://forums.civfanatics.com/biggrin.gif
