tweaked another one so that it kinda 'feels' right.



A husband and wife were driving down a country lane on their way to visit some friends. They came to a muddy patch in the road and the car became bogged. After a few minutes of trying to get the car out by themselves, they saw a young farmer coming down the lane, driving some oxen before him.

The farmer stopped when he saw the couple in trouble and offered to pull the car out of the mud for $20. The husband accepted and minutes later the car was free.

The husband says to the farmer, "It's a good thing for us you were nearby, or we might have been there all day"

"Oh, I'm always near," replied the farmer, "I just kinda wait up there on that hill. Someone is always getting stuck. You are the 4th one today"

"You mean you just wait all day? I can see that you make some extra money doing it, but in order to do your regular chores, you must have to work at night!"

"No," the young farmer replied seriously, "Night is when I add more water in the hole."
