Today's Laugh........Ha Ha Ha !!!
A cowboy in Oklahoma got pulled over by a State Trooper for speeding. The trooper started giving him a long lecture about slowing down, really throwing his weight around to make the cowboy squirm. As the trooper wrote the ticket, he kept swatting at flies buzzing around his head. The cowboy said, “Having trouble with circle flies, huh?” The trooper frowned. “Circle flies? Never heard of ’em.” The cowboy grinned. “They’re really common on ranches. We call ’em circle flies because they’re almost always found circling around a horse’s ass.” The trooper paused. “Wait a minute… are you calling me a horse’s ass?” The cowboy replied, “Oh no, sir! I’d never disrespect law enforcement like that.” The trooper nodded. “Glad to hear it,” and went back to writing. After a moment, the cowboy added, “Still… kinda hard to fool them flies though.” |
