This one is really bad, but it illustrates a worthwhile lesson.
It was back in the old days when farmers drove wagons, and farmer Bill was driving his wagon down a country lane when he met farmer Sy coming the other way. He said, “Hold up there, Sy.”
Sy said, “Whoa,” and stopped his wagon.
Bill said, “Sy, my mule is sick. What did you give your mule when she was sick?”
Sy said, “Turpentine. Giddy up,” and went on his way.
A week later farmer Bill was again driving along the country lane when he met farmer Sy coming the other way. He said, “Hold up there, Sy.”
Sy said, “Whoa,” and stopped his wagon.
Bill said, “Sy, I gave my mule turpentine, and it killed it.”
Sy said, “Killed mine, too. Giddy up.”
