Three Pigs & The Wolf
December 9, 2012
    There were three pig brothers who lived in a village. The eldest brother made his brothers work for him on his farm, but he paid them little while he lived in a big brick house.  The second eldest brother didn't help around the farm so often, and had another job. He lived in a wooden house. But the youngest brother was honest. He worked on the farm so earnestly that he was poorer than his brothers.  He lived in a grass house.  But he was smarter than his other two brothers.
    One day there was a warning siren in the village that alerted everyone that the wolf had come.  The wolf was mean and sometimes attacked the villagers, and killed them for food.
    The wolf came to the eldest brother's brick house and said, "I have this!" and he showed him a laser cutter.  He started to cut the brick walls. The eldest brother was terrified, and escaped to his younger brother's wooden house.
    Soon the wolf came to the wooden house.  And again showing his laser cutter,
said, "I can cut your house, and also cut the both of you to eat."  He started to cut the wooden walls of the house.  The two brothers were horrified, and escaped to the youngest brother's house.  Thinking that the grass house couldn't protect them even for a second, they entered anyways because they didn't have another choice.
    Soon the wolf came to the youngest brother's grass house and laughed, "For this grass hut, I don't even need my laser."  The wolf started to blow at the house.  The grass house was easily bent, but wasn't blown away.  The youngest brother carefully selected a strong grass, especially suitable for houses.  He grew the grass from the ground, then knitted the grass together to form walls and a roof to make a house.  The grass house was so strong, it could survive hurricanes!  The wolf blew again and again, but the result was the same.  Now he was exhausted and angry.
    The wolf said, "Ok, ok.  I should have used the best way even for such a small thing like a hut."  He took out the laser cutter, and started to cut the grass walls.  But this time, the laser didn't work well because the grass was soft and flexible and moist.  The wolf powered up the level of the laser, and fired away, but again it didn't work.  
    Now the wolf was furious. He started to swing the machine frantically.  That was a bad idea; for when he swung the cutter, he lost control, and mistakenly aimed the laser at one of his legs.  He cried horribly.  His left leg dropped from his body and he fell down on the ground.  Soon afterwards, he died of heavy bleeding.
    The eldest brother apologized to his younger brothers, and they lived happily together in his big brick house.  But they never forgot to go to the grass house in case of an emergency.
