A cheerful man, his name is Jack, wanted to give "goose" as a gift to the governor of the city, he asked his wife to prepare the largest goose and cook it, perhaps the governor would gives him a grant from the many awards. After that his wife had prepared the goose. Jack carried it to the governor's mansion. In the way he was hungry and ate one of goose thighs.
He arrived at the palace, presented it to the governor. When the governor saw the goose said to Jack angrily:What is this Jack? Where is the thigh of the goose?
Jack said to him: all geese in our town has only one foot, if you don't believe me, come and see from the palace window to the geese which on the lake shore.
The governor looked at the swarm of geese on the lake shore stand on one foot, as usually geese at rest.
He sent one of his soldiers carrying a stick to the swarm geese, the geese dismayed and hurried to the water on two legs.
Governor said:What you say now?
Jack said:
If a man be attacked by this stick, he will hurry on four feet .... what you expect of geese?

I think that Jack said in his heart, "the smell of the goose, is delicious, and I'm hungry, I'll eat the goose thigh, and it does not matter the consequences. Thank you for your comment.
"I'm so hungry, Sir. I'm sorry" Jack said in the heart. :D
Daughter of the king,
I think that the story of the chicken is very nice, I hope that you told us about it. Thank you for your comment.
nice story it shows how smart people can act in different situations, it also reminded me by a similar story in which the man offered the head only to the governor as he is the head of the country, the wings to his assistants because they resemble his arms, and he and his family ate the rest of the chicken.
setareh,
He was hungry, so he could not resist the smell of the cooked goose which he was holds for the governor, so he responded to the call of his stomach, and did not think about what will happen. Thank you for your comment.
