A ventriloquist (V) is lost in the country and stops at a farm for directions. He walks up to the farmer sitting on the porch and decides to have some fun...
He asks the farmer if it is OK to talk with his dog. The farmer looks at him like he is crazy, but his curiosity gets the better of him so he says, "OK, talk to him."
The V says to the dog, "How is life for you on the farm?" The dog answers, "Oh it's great! My master feeds me, lets me ride in the truck, and I get to chase the animals in the field."
The farmer about chokes on his hay he was chewing! The V then asks if he can talk with the horse. The farmer frowns, but, still disbelieving, cautiously says, "OK."
The V walks up to the horse and asks, "Hi Horse! How is life for you?" The horse says, "It's wonderful! I get to romp in the fields, the farmer feeds me carrots, and I get to race in the county fair once a year."
By now the farmer is nearly having a fit! Next, the V asks the farmer, "Mind if I talk to the sheep?"
The farmer immediately responds, "The sheep lie!" |
