The Law

"Josh," Furaha asked one of her best friends one day as they were walking out in nature, "What are the four only laws of nature?"

"Four only laws?" asked Josh. "What do you mean, buddy?"

"Four laws. I know the first four - play, sleep, eat and sing. It's nature's way of telling us to relax."

"I obey them too, when I feel sweat from all those extreme sports I am forced to attend." replied Josh, tousling the fur on Furaha's head. "But do you know what the fifth law is?"

"What?" asked Furaha.

Five seconds later, Furaha was scratching her itchy red back against the bark of a tree, groaning in pleasure and saying, "I needed that. That's the law of nature, Josh! When it itches, nature really does call!"

"Oh, I get it now," Josh realised to himself as he watched Furaha scratch away like an irritated-as-hell grizzly bear. "Play, sleep, eat, sing and scratch. Those ARE the five laws of nature."

As Josh was thinking to himself about the 1,000 other laws of nature, he suddenly was caught off guard by Furaha squealing in pain, and then calling:

"JOSH!

I've got a huge splinter on my back."
