Smart Ass

We had gone down to visit the petting zoo, as they had been advertising the world's smartest donkey, and I had begged my mom and dad to take me to see him.

As show time came around, the animal trainer led out a small gray donkey and started to address the crowd. She told us that he was the world's smartest donkey because he could do math. As she asked him to do a few simple equations, and he answered correctly, the audience roared with laughter.

The trainer even gave a few kids and a few adults a chance to ask the donkey some math questions, and he answered every equation correctly by tapping his hooves on the ground.
