Traffic Ticket
A farmer got pulled over by a state trooper for speeding,
and the trooper started to lecture the farmer about his
speed, and in general began to throw his weight around
to try to make the farmer uncomfortable.
Finally, the trooper got around to writing out the ticket,
and as he was doing that he kept swatting at some flies
that were buzzing around his head. The farmer said,
"Having some problems with circle flies there, are ya?"
The trooper stopped writing the ticket and said--"Well
yeah, if that's what they are--I never heard of circle
flies." So the farmer says--"Well, circle flies are
common on farms. See, they're called circle flies because
they're almost always found circling around the back end
of a horse."
The trooper says, "Oh," and goes back to writing the
ticket. Then after a minute he stops and says, "Hey ...
wait a minute, are you trying to call me a horses ass?"
The farmer says, "Oh no, officer. I have too much respect
for law enforcement and police officers to even think
about calling you a horses ass."
The trooper says, "Well, that's a good thing," and goes
back to writing the ticket.
After a long pause, the farmer says, "Hard to fool them
flies though."
