Alabama Farmer

>> An Alabama farmer got in his pickup and drove to a neighboring farm and
>>>>> knocked at the farmhouse door. A young boy about 9 opened the door.
>>>>> "Is yer Dad home?" the farmer asked. "No sir, he ain't," the boy
>>>>> replied.
>>>>> "He went into town." Well said the farmer, "is yer Mom here?" "No,
>>>>> sir,
>>>>> she ain't here neither. She went into town with Dad." "How about your
>>>>> brother, Howard? Is he here?" "He went with Mom and Dad."
>>>>> The farmer stood there for a few minutes, shifting from one foot to
>>>>> the
>>>>> other and mumbling to himself. "Is there anything I can do fer ya?"
>>>>> the
>>>>> boy asked politely. "I knows where all the tools are, if you want to
>>>>> borry one.
>>>>> Or maybe I could take a message fer Dad." "Well," said the farmer
>>>>> uncomfortably, "I really wanted to talk to yer Dad.It's about your
>>>>> brother Howard getting my daughter, Pearly Mae, pregnant."
>>>>> The boy considered for a moment. "You would have to talk to Pa about
>>>>> that", he finally conceded.
>>>>> "If it helps you any, I know that Pa charges $50 for the bull and $25
>>>>> for the hog, but I really don't know how much he gets fer Howard." .
