Three turtles, Joe, Steve, and Poncho, decide to go on a picnic. So, Joe packs the picnic basket with cookies, bottled sodas, and sandwiches. The trouble is, the picnic site is, 10 miles away, so the turtles take 10 whole days to get there. By the time they do arrive, everyones whipped .Joe takes the stuff out of the basket, one by one. He takes out the sodas and says,Alright, Steve, gimme the bottle opener.



I didnt bring the bottle opener, Steve says. I thought you packed it. Joe gets worried.



He turns to Poncho. Poncho, do you have the bottle opener?



Naturally, Poncho doesnt have it, so the turtles are stuck ten miles away from home without soda. Joe & Steve beg Poncho to turn back home and retrieve it, but Poncho flatly refuses, knowing that theyll eat everything by the time he gets back. Somehow, after about two hours, the turtles manage to convince Poncho to go ,swearing on their great-grand turtles graves that they wont touch the food.



So, Poncho sets off down the road, slow and steadily. Twenty days pass, but no Poncho. Joe and Steve are hungry and puzzled, but a promise is a promise. Another day passes, and still no Poncho, but a promise is a promise. After three more days pass without Poncho in sight, Steve starts getting restless.



I NEED FOOD! he says with a hint of dementia in his voice. NO! Joe retorts. We promised. Five more days pass. Joe realizes that Poncho probably skipped out to the Burger King down the road, so the two turtles weakly lift the lid ,get a sandwich, and open their mouths to eat.



But then, right at that instant, Poncho pops out behind a rock, and says, Just for that, Im not going.
