Sahara Forest

A large, well established, Canadian lumber 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 axe, 
and knocked on the head lumberjacks' 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," said the skinny man. 

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

The skinny man headed for the tree, and in five minutes he 
was back knocking on the lumberjack's door.

"I cut the tree down," said the man. The lumberjack couldn't 
believe his eyes and said, "Where did you get the skill to chop 
down trees like that?"   

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

"You mean the Sahara Desert," said the lumberjack. 

The little man laughed and answered back, "Oh sure, that's 
what they call it now!"
