Number 9 = The Pony and The Buffalo
Pak Pandir had a little stable and a nice buffalo. He hadn't wanted to buy a pony, because his buffalo would be disturbed. In addition, he didn't have much money either. But his wife wanted to have a pony and managed to convince him at long last. Pak Pandir couldn't refuse his dutiful wife, so he bought a pony and put it in the stable. But the stable was small and both animals could not stay quiet. After a while, Pak Pandir became fed up with the racket, and said,"Dear God, kill this ponyand save my buffalo." A few days later Pak Pandir entered the stable and noticed that his precious buffalo was dead as a doornail while the pony was very much alive. "Dear God!" exclaimed Pak Pandir, "You have been God for so long but it seems You are incapable of making the distinction between a pony and a buffalo."
