~~~ A farmer invited his city cousin up for a few days on the farm.
It was harvest season and he was awfully busy so he worried the cousin might become bored. Everything went well for a couple of days, but then the cousin began to act bored.
Thinking about this the farmer asked the cousin if he liked hunting.
The cousin replied he didn't know, he had never been hunting.
Can you shoot a gun, the farmer asked.
Well, yeah I've done that replied the cousin.
So the farmer told him to go up to the house, get his shotgun and some shells from the den and take his three hunting dogs out into the woods.
The cousin walked of into the woods.
A couple hours later, he came back by himself.
The farmer asked how it went.
The cousin said great, he got off a few good shots.
Then he asked the farmer, you wouldn't happen to have any more dogs, would you?
.
~~~ A man and his wife, moved back home to West Virginia, from Ohio.
The husband had a wooden leg, and to insure it back in Ohio cost them$2000 per year!
When they arrived in West Virginia, they went to an insurance agency to see how much it would cost to insure his wooden leg.
The agent looked it up on the computer and said: '$39.
'The husband was shocked and asked why it was so cheap here in West Virginia to insure it because it cost him $2000 in Ohio!
The insurance agent turned his computer screen to the couple and said,'Well, here it is on the screen, it says: Any wooden structure, with a sprinkler system above it, is $39....
You just have to know how to describe it!'
(Those HILLBILLIES know how to "git'er done" don't they?)
.
~~~ A friend who lost her mate several years ago developed a friendship with a man who had also lost his spouse.
They seemed a perfect match, and all their children agreed they should get married.
This was their invitation: Phil, Richard, Karen and Allison and Jonh, Matt and Steve request the honor of your presence at the marriage of their Mother and Father.
Because they are combining two households,they already have at least two of everything.
So please, no presents!
Reception and garage sale immediately following the ceremony.

~~~ Cultivating the land near Mom's garden, my dad ran right over the cabbages she had planted.
My brother, John, burst into the house, exclaiming, "Mom,.... your sauerkraut is made!
Dad just drove over all of your cabbages."
.
~~~ Hoping for a great day of sailing on my brother Terry's sailboat, we motored out from the mooring area.
After searching hours for a breeze, I noticed Terry intently looking shoreward.
"I have good news and I have bad news," he announced.
"The good news is we're sailing faster now than we have all day.
The bad news is we're going backward due to the tide and current."
.
~~~ THE OWNER TOLD SAID TO HIS ADMINISTRATOR: "I just wanted to let you know, Wilson, that I'll be blaming you for everything until the computers are back up."
.
~~~ One wedding cake designer I called said, 'We specialize in elaborate beautiful white flowers all over the cake.'
So I said, 'I should tell you, this is for two men.'
There was a slight pause and she said,.... 'I can put little baseball players all over it?'
.
~~~ A lawyer in the midst of cross-examining a witness on a crucial but rather technical point noticed that a juror had dozed off.
The lawyer brought the sleeping juror to the attention of the judge, who barked, "Well, you wake him up!
After all,.... you put him to sleep!"
.
~~~ Two-week vacations with four kids in a tent make you appreciate the serenity of the workplace.
.
~~~ Our most basic instinct is not for survival but for family.
Most of us would give our own life for the survival of a family member, yet we lead our daily life too often as if we take our family for granted.
.
~~~ My father-in-law was an airborne controller for Strategic Air Command.
Translation: He's the guy who decided which target to attack and how.
But my husband didn't quite know how to explain that to our six-year-old son.
Instead, he said that his father had flown in airplanes.
"Did he fly the planes?" our son asked.
"No"....
"So he was the one who handed out the pretzels?"
