> [@twickster](#): > > I’m still shoveling. There’s gotta be a pony here somewhere. When I was 15 or so a ::_cough cough_:: years ago, I went to an Optimist Club meeting, Speaker told a joke. Two kids were locked in two different rooms in an experiment. Kid 1 was locked in a room that had every toy imagineable in it. Kid 2 was locked in a room a foot deep full of horseshit. When the designers of the experiment opened the door of room 1, they found the kid sitting in the middle of the floor crying, When asked why, he said he was afraid he might break something if he played with it. The door to room #2 was opened and the kid was madly digging by hand through the shit. When asked why he was doing such a crazy thing, he said–“I figure with this much shit there must be a pony in here somewhere.” “That boy was an OPTIMIST!” [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/anyone-else-not-getting-email-notifications/664948.md?page=2)
