The Farmer, the Duck & the Lawyer

A big city lawyer went duck hunting here in rural North Carolina. He shot and
dropped a bird, but it fell into a farmer's field on the other side of a
fence. As the lawyer climbed over the fence, an elderly farmer drove up
on his tractor and asked him what he was doing.
The litigator responded, "I shot a duck and it fell in this field, and
now I' m going to retrieve it."
The old farmer replied, "This is my property, and you are not coming
over here."
The indignant lawyer said, "I am one of the best trial attorneys in the
United States and, if you don't let me get that duck, I'll sue you and
take everything you own."
The old farmer smiled and said, "Apparently, you don't know how we
settle disputes in North Carolina. We settle small disagreements with the
'Three Kick Rule.'"
The lawyer asked, "What is the 'Three Kick Rule'?"
The Farmer replied, "Well, because the dispute occurs on my land, I get
to go first. I kick you three times and then you kick me three times
and so on back and forth until someone GIVES UP."
The attorney quickly thought about the proposed contest and decided that
he could easily take the old codger. He agreed to abide by the local
custom.
The old farmer slowly climbed down from the tractor and walked up to the
attorney.
His first kick planted the toe of his heavy steel toed work boot into
the lawyer's groin and dropped him to his knees.
His second kick to the midriff sent the lawyer's last meal gushing from
his mouth.
The lawyer was on all fours when the farmer's third kick to his rear
end, sent him face-first into a fresh cow pie.
The lawyer summoned every bit of his will and managed to get to his
feet. Wiping his face with the arm of his jacket, he said, "Okay, you
old fart. Now it's my turn."

The old farmer smiled and said, "Nah, I GIVE UP. You can have the duck

Happy Trails Maggie

I've been trying to stay away from this old computer, and get a life. I don't know what else to say? ........ But Maggie deserves this post!
Maggie, (my mom's dog) passed away sometime between 9:30 last Thursday night and daylight Friday morning (7/29/07). We can only hope it was a peaceful death in her sleep. Her best buddy Lulu was at her her side all night and didn't even get out of their bed until mom went to rouse them that morning.

Mom said she took them out around 9:30 to potty, and then they crawled in their bed for the night. Then mom found Lulu snuggled up to Maggies cold little body the next morning.
Mom is handling it pretty well, except that Lulu is consantly searching the house for her little buddy. Mom said she wonders if Lulu is taking it harder than she is?

I always think of Rod Stewart's song "Maggie May" when I think of Maggie. Of course I would have to change a lot of the words to fit our Maggie!

My ex wife knew some old redneck farmer back in 2000 who had Maggie in a pen with about a dozen or more bulldogs, and said he was looking for a home for her.My mom already had Lulu back then and we asked her if Lulu needed a buddy?
We're not sure of Maggies age, but she wasn't no spring chicken. The vet thinks she was way over 10 years old at her last check up.

She was a happy and very friendly little gal and will be missed dearly!

Lulu is gonna borrow Rod's lyrics mixed with mine, and this is from Lulu to Maggie!

"Wake up maggie I think I got something to say to you
Its late september and I really should be back at obedience school
I know I keep you amused but I feel Im being used
Oh maggie I think I've pooped on the floor
You lured me away from home just so you could steal my bone
You stole my heart and thats what really hurt
The morning sun when its in your face really shows your age
But that dont worry me none in my eyes youre everything
I laughed at all of your jokes my love you didnt need to coax
Oh, maggie I think I've pooped on the floor
You lured me away from home, just so you could steal my bone
You stole my bone and thats a pain I can do without
All I needed was a friend to lend a guiding hand
But you turned into a humper and Mother what a humper, you wore me out
All you did was wreck my bed
And in the morning kick me in the head
Oh maggie I think I've pooped on the floor
You lured me away from home , and I don't want to be alone
You stole my heart I couldnt leave you if I tried"
