* 51. A young farmer was having terrible trouble getting his first crop to grow, so he asks a more experienced neighbor for help.
“Well, I’ve seen ya,” says the old guy. “And you’re not watering enough. You really have to saturate the seeds to get `em going.”
Happy for the advice, the young farmer buys extra hoses and irrigation tools, and the next morning, really begins soaking the field. Unfortunately, the smell of the wet earth attracts all sorts of birds and rodents, who peck the field clean.
“It’s a disaster,” says the kid. “Anything the water touches, they eat.”
“Don’t panic,” says the old guy, “you just need a living scarecrow. Visit the hardware store, and get yourself some red, yellow, blue, and purple dye. Then, go in your henhouse and grab one of your biggest chickens. You’re gonna dip the chicken in all these colors, and twist its feathers a little so the patterns are really wild looking. Put him in the field, and he’ll scare off all the intruders while your crop gets fully watered.”
“I dunno,” says the boy. “Do you really think it’ll work?”
“Of course,” says the senior farmer. “Haven’t you ever heard, `If at First You Don’t Soak Seeds, Tie-Dye a Hen?”

* 50. A woman goes into a bakery in Chinatown and asks for her usual breakfast coffee and sticky bun. “I’m sorry,” says the counter girl. “We’re out of coffee. But we have many unusual teas here. Try one?”
“Sure,” says the woman. “What’ve you got?”
“Well, we have bubble tea, rice tea, buckwheat tea, and our house blend which is made from noodles.”
“That sounds interesting,” says the woman. “How do you make it?”
“I’ll show you.” The counter girl opens a bag of tea and then pours a healthy scoop through a funnel and into a mug of boiling water.
“Delicious!” says the customer. “You should really advertise how you make this.”
“Oh, we can’t!” says the girl. “We’d get arrested.”
“Arrested? For pouring tea through a cone?”
“Yes,” says the girl. “We’d be showing Full Funnel Noodle Tea.”

* 49. A French astronomer thrills his colleagues when he calls them over to his telescope and shows them his discovery: a new planet.
“That’s amazing!” they say. “Can you tell what it’s made out of?”
“From what I can see, it’s a bunch of molecular clusters that formed into a giant polymer.”
“We must alert the whole scientific community,” says another colleague. “Hey, have you named it yet?”
“No,” says the astronomer. “I’m stuck on that part.”
“Well, what about naming it after yourself?”
“I thought about that, but my first name is Jean, which would sound silly: Planet Jean. And my last name is Eugenia, which, as you know, already is a planet.”
Another scientist chimes in, “Well, what about naming it based on how it looks?”
“Not a bad idea,” says Jean, looking through his telescope. “Well, its surface is smooth, and the color is yellowish white. It’s slightly more ovoid than round. Maybe we should call it, Planet Egg.”
“Okay,” says the head of the lab. “We should sent out a press release to all the journals, Scientific American, Astronomy Now, Sky and Telescope, and Italian Cuisine Magazine.
“Wait,” says the astronomer. “I get the journals and the science books. But why Italian Cuisine?”
“Because,” says the colleague. “You found an Egg Planet Polymer, Jean.”
The 50th Wretched Pun of Destiny segment aired Sept. 5, 2015 as part of the “Dave’s Gone By” radio program hosted by Dave Lefkowitz.
