Only A Farm Kid.

 

 

When you're from the country you look at things a little differently.....

 

A Missouri farmer got in his pickup and drove to a neighboring farm and knocked at the door. A young boy, about 9, opened the door.

 

"Is your Dad home?" the rancher asked.

 

"No sir, he isn't," the boy replied. "He went into town."

 

"Well," said the rancher, "Is your Mother here?"

 

"No sir, she's not here either. She went into town with Dad."

 

"How about your brother, Howard? Is he here?"

 

"No sir, he went with Mom and Dad."

 

The farmer stood there for a few minutes, shifting from one foot to the other and mumbling to himself.

 

"Is there anything I can do for you?" the boy asked politely. "I know where all the tools are, if you want to borrow one. Or maybe I could take a message for Dad."

 

"Well," said the farmer uncomfortably, "I really wanted to talk to your Dad. It's about your brother Howard getting my daughter, Suzie, pregnant."

 

The boy considered for a moment. "You would have to talk to Pa about that," he finally conceded. "If it helps you any, I know that Pa charges $500 for the bull and $50 for the hog, but I really don't know how much he gets for Howard."

I had not heard it either. I really enjoyed it.

 

I have a handful of friends who I exchange jokes with via email. It surprised me how many did not understand it.
