Amy, a blonde city girl, marries a farmer. One morning, before he
goes out to the fields, the farmer says to her, "The artificial
insemination man is coming to impregnate one of our cows today. I drove a nail into
the two-by-four above the cow's stall. You show him where it is, okay?"
The farmer leaves for the fields and a while later the artificial insemination
man arrives. Amy takes him down the long row of cows until she sees
the nail and tells him, "This is the one. This one right here!"
Terribly impressed, the man asks, "How did you know this is the cow to be
bred?"
"By the nail over its stall," Amy explains. Then the inseminator
asks, What's the nail for?"
As she walks away she tells him, "I guess it's
to hang your pants on.

but on what is right." ~ Ivan Howes
