Subject: Fw: OLD PEOPLE
THIS IS WHY WE LOVE OLD PEOPLE.
THEY MAKE SUCH PERFECT SENSE OUT OF EVERYTHING!!!
A farmer stopped by the local mechanic shop to have his truck fixed.
They couldn't do it while he waited, so he said he didn't live far &
would just walk home.
On the way, he stopped at the hardware store & bought a bucket & a gallon
of paint.
He then stopped by the feed store & picked up a couple of chickens & a
goose.
However, struggling outside the store, he now had a problem - how to
carry his entire purchases home.
While he was scratching his head he was approached by a little old lady
who told him she was lost.
She asked, "Can you tell me how to get to 1603 Mockingbird Lane?"
The farmer said, "Well, as a matter of fact, my farm is very close to
that house.
I would walk you there, but I can't carry this lot."
The old lady suggested, "Why don't you put the can of paint in the bucket.
Carry the bucket in one hand, put a chicken under each arm & carry the
goose in your other hand?"
"Why, thank you very much", he said, and proceeded to walk the old girl
home.
On the way he says, "Let's take a short cut & go down this alley. We'll
be there in no time."
The little old lady looked him over cautiously, then said, "I am a lonely
widow w/out a husband to defend me.
How do I know that when we get in the alley you won't hold me up against
the wall, pull up my skirt, & have your way w/me?"
The farmer said, "Holy smokes, lady! I'm carrying a bucket, a gallon of
paint, 2 chickens & a goose.
How in the world could I possibly hold you up against the wall & do that?"
The old lady replied, "Set the goose down, cover him w/the bucket, put
the paint on top of the bucket, & I'll hold the chickens ."
