"Country Lane"
A husband and wife were driving down a
country lane on their way to visit some friends.
They came to a muddy patch in the road and
the car became bogged. After a few minutes
of trying to get the car out by themselves, they
saw a young farmer coming down the lane,
driving some oxen before him.
He stopped when he saw the couple in trouble
and offered to pull the car out of the mud for $50.
The husband accepted and minutes later the
car was free.
The farmer turned to the husband and said,
"You know, you're the tenth car I've helped
out of the mud today."
The husband looks around at the fields
incredulously and asks the farmer,"When
do you have time to plough your land? At
night?"
"No," the young farmer replied seriously, "Night
is when I put the water in the hole."
