The Pig -- THe Patron Saint.... OF Cleanliness.

There was once a pig and she was no ordinary pig . She was the neatest pig in the whole pen . She has four brothers and they were all dirty looking not to mention their pens .

Anyway , one day the neighbors got jealous of this neat pig . Because ,I mean how can a pig be so neat and tidy when we all knew that pigs were suppose to be full of dirt!!!!!!

So they set up a council and voted among themselves to have the pig evacuated from her pen . When the father pig heard this , he pleaded with the pig to change her lifestyle and get mud and grime all over her pen and everywhere so that she could be saved.

But no , she was an educated pig and that was a big NO !! She refused . One of the members reported this to the council . They in turn reported the matter to the chief .

It was later said that this so called clean pig ended up as someone's dish on a platter .

The story does not end here , when she was slaughtered , she was sent right up to PIG HEAVEN. There , she was crowned as a patron saint for all pigs .

So , it was said again pigs in the world would have a special gathering in her honor.But this was no ordinary gathering . It was a time when all pigs would clean up their pens and word has it , that is usually lasts for five minutes and then it would be messed up in no time !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hope you liked this tale ...
