A
couple drives for hours, trying to escape the big-city rat race. Winding down back roads and narrow country
lanes, they end up in a very small town.
Shaking their heads at how peaceful everything is, they enter the town’s
tiny general store.
“The
country is so nice and quiet,” they say to the store owner. “t’s so much better than life in the
city. Don’t you agree?”
“Can’t
rightly say,” replied the store owner. “Never
lived in the country – always lived right here in town.”
