Two brothers buy a place in the country, and decide they need a mule to plow with. They go down the road to another farmer's place and ask if he has a mule he'll . He says,"No, but I have a mule egg I'll you." So he goes and gets a coconut, and says they can hatch it and raise the mule. They him, put the coconut in the back of their truck, and take off. As they go down the road, the coconut bounces out and splits open . A rabbit comes up and sniffs it as the brothers stop the truck and get out. king it's the mule, they start chasing it. They run and run until they're exhausted, and one turns to the other and says, "Forget it. I don't think I could plow that fast anyway."
A bit of a shaggy dog story.
Shaggy mule!
