Joke time

Farmers' wisdom...

It's been around before but I think it's worth repeating!  Some great simple wisdom!:

- Your fences need to be horse-high, pig-tight and bull-strong.

- Keep skunks and bankers at a distance.

- Life is simpler when you plow around the stump.

- A bumble bee is considerably faster than a John Deere tractor.

- Words that soak into your ears are whispered... not yelled.

- Meanness don't jes' happen overnight.

- Forgive your enemies; it messes up their heads.

- Do not corner something that you know is meaner than you.

- It don't take a very big person to carry a grudge.

- You cannot unsay a cruel word.

- Every path has a few puddles.

- When you wallow with pigs, expect to get dirty.

- The best sermons are lived, not preached.

- Most of the stuff people worry about ain't never gonna happen anyway.

- Don't judge folks by their relatives.

- Remember that silence is sometimes the best answer.

- Live a good, honorable life... Then when you get older and think back, you'll enjoy it a second time.

- Don 't interfere with somethin' that ain't bothering you none.


- Timing has a lot to do with the outcome of a Rain dance.

- If you find yourself in a hole, the first thing to do is stop diggin'.


- Sometimes you get, and sometimes you get got.

- The biggest troublemaker you'll probably ever have to deal with, watches you from the mirror every mornin'.

- Always drink upstream from the herd.

- Good judgment comes from experience, and a lotta that comes from bad judgment.

- Lettin' the cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier than puttin' it back in.

- If you get to thinkin' you're a person of some influence, try orderin' somebody else's dog around.

- Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply.

- Speak kindly. Leave the rest to God.


- Don't pick a fight with an old man. If he is too old to fight, he'll just kill you.
