Circle Flies A cowboy gets pulled over by a State Trooper for
speeding. The trooper started to lecture the cowboy
about his speeding, and in general began to throw his
weight around to try to make the cowboy feel
uncomfortable.
Finally, the trooper got around to writing out the
ticket. As he was doing that, he kept swatting at some
flies that were buzzing around his head. The cowboy
sez, "Y 'all havin' some problem with circle flies?"
The trooper stopped writing the ticket and said, "Well
yeah, if that's what they're called. But I never
heard of no circle flies."
"Well, sir," the cowboy replies, "Circle flies hang
around ranches. 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. But, a moment later he stops and says, "Are you callin' me a horse's a$$?"
"No , sir," the cowboy replies. "I have too much
respect for law enforement to call y'all a horse's
a$$."
"That's a good thing," the trooper says and goes back
to writing the ticket.
After a long pause, the cowboy, in his best Texas
drawl says, "Hard to fool them flies though." |
