Little Johnny was 12 years old and like other boys his age, rather curious,
he had been hearing quite a bit about "courting" from the older boys and
wondered what it was and how it was done.
One day he took his questions to his mother, who became rather flustered.
Instead of explaining things to Johnny, she told him to hide behind the curtains
one night and watch his older sister and her boyfriend.
This he did. The following morning, Johnny described everything to his
mother.
"Sis and her boyfriend sat and talked for a while, then he turned off most of
the lights. Then he started kissing and hugging her. I figured sis must be
getting sick because her face started looking funny. He must have thought so
too, because he put his hand inside her blouse to feel her heart, just like the
doctor would. Except, he's not as smart as the doctor, because he seemed to have
trouble finding her heart. I guess he was getting sick too, because pretty soon
both of them started panting and getting all out of breath.
His other hand must have been cold, because he put it under her skirt. About
this time, sis got worse, and began to moan and sigh and squirm around and slide
down the end of the couch.
This was when the fever started. I knew it was a
fever because sis told him she was really hot.
Finally, I found what was making them so sick.... a big eel had gotten inside
his pants somehow... it jumped out of his pants and stood there, about ten
inches long. Honest. anyway he grabbed it in one hand to keep it from getting
away.
When sis saw it, she got really scared... her eyes got big, and her mouth
fell open and she started calling out to God and stuff like that. She said it
was the biggest one she's ever seen; I should tell her about the one down at the
lake! Anyway, sis got brave and tried to kill the eel by biting it's head off.
All of a sudden, she made a noise and let the eel go. I guess it bit her back.
Sis then grabbed it with both hands and held it tight while he took a muzzle out
of his pocket and slipped it over the eel's head to keep it from biting
again.
Sis then layed back and spread her legs so she could get a scissor lock on
its head, he helped by lying on top of the eel. The eel put up a hell of a
fight. Sis started groaning and squealing and her boyfriend almost upset the
couch. I guess they wanted to kill the eel by squashing it between them.
After a while, they both quit moving and gave a great sigh. Her boyfriend got
up, and sure enough they had killed the eel. I knew it was dead, because it just
hung there, limp and some of its insides was hanging out.
Sis and her boyfriend were a little tired form the battle, but they went back
to courting anyway. He started hugging and kissing her again. By golly, the eel
wasn't dead! It jumped straight up and started to fight again. I guess eels are
like cats....they have nine lives or something.
This time, sis jumped up and tried to kill the eel by sitting on it. After a
36 minute struggle, they finally killed the eel. I knew it was dead because i
saw sis boyfriend peel its skin off and flush it down the toilet"
By this time, Johnny's mother had passed out cold.
