A large, well established, lumber1 camp advertised that they were looking for a good lumberjack.

The very next day, a skinny little man showed up at the camp with his axe2 and knocked on the head lumberjack's door. The head lumberjack took one look at the little man and told him to leave.

"Just give me a chance to show you what I can do," begged the skinny man.

"Okay, see that giant redwood over there? Take your axe and go cut it down."

The skinny man headed for the tree, and five minutes later he returned to tell the head lumberjack that he had successfully cut the tree down. The head lumberjack couldn't believe his eyes.

"Where did you get the skill to chop down trees like that?" he asked the little man.

"In the Sahara Forest," replied the little man.

"You mean the Sahara Desert," said the lumberjack. The little man grinned and replied, "Oh sure, that's what they call it now!"
