Subject: Fwd: FUN STORIES FROM THE SOUTH..comedy
Here is some Southern logic to brighten
your day!
Alabama
A group of Alabama friends went deer hunting and paired off in twos for the
day. That night, one of the hunters returned alone, staggering under the weight
of an eight-point buck.
"Where's Henry?" the others asked.
" Henry had a stroke o' some kind. He's a couple of miles back up the trail,"
the successful hunter replied.
" You left Henry layin' out there and carried the deer back?" they inquired.
"A tough call," nodded the hunter. "But I figured no one's gonna steal Henry!
Georgia
The owner of a golf course in Georgia was confused about paying an invoice, so
he decided to ask his secretary for some mathematical help.
He called her into his office and said, "Y'all graduated from the University of
Georgia and I need some help. If I wuz to give yew $20,000, minus 14%, how much
would you take off?
The secretary thought a moment, and then replied, "Everthang but my earrings.
Louisiana
A senior citizen in Louisiana was overheard saying ... "When the end of the
world comes, I hope to be in Louisiana
When asked why, he replied, "I'd rather be in Louisiana 'cause everythang
happens in Louisiana 20 years later than in the rest of the world.
Mississippi
The young man from Mississippi came running into the store and said to his
buddy, "Bubba, somebody just stole your pickup truck from the parking lot!
Bubba replied, "Did y'all see who it was?
The young man answered, "I couldn't tell, but I got the license number.
North Carolina
A man in North Carolina had a flat tire, pulled off on the side of the road,
and proceeded to put a bouquet of flowers in front of the car and one behind
it. Then he got back in the car to wait.
A passerby studied the scene as he drove by, and was so curious he turned
around and went back. He asked the fellow what the problem was.
The man replied, "I got a flat tahr."
But, what ’ s with the flowers?
The man responded, "When you break down they tell you to put flares in the
front and flares in the back. I never did understand it neither.
Tennessee
A Tennessee State trooper pulled over a pickup on I-65. The trooper asked, "Got
any ID?
The driver replied, "Bout whut?
Texas
The Sheriff pulled up next to the guy unloading garbage out of his pick-up into
the ditch. The Sheriff asked, "Why are you dumping garbage in the ditch? Don't
you see that sign right over your head.
"Yep," he replied. "That's why I'm dumpin' it here, 'cause it says: 'Fine For
Dumping Garbage. "
**Y'all kin say whut y'all want 'about the South, but y'all never heard o'
nobody retirin' an' movin' North.
AND ONE MORE:
A WOMAN WALKS INTO THE DOWNTOWN WELFARE OFFICE, TRAILED BY 15 KIDS.
'WOW,' THE SOCIAL WORKER EXCLAIMS, 'ARE THEY ALL YOURS?
'YEP, THEY'RE ALL MINE, ' THE FLUSTERED MOMMA SIGHS, HAVING HEARD THAT QUESTION
A THOUSAND TIMES BEFORE. SHE SAYS, 'SIT DOWN, TERRY.' ALL THE CHILDREN RUSH TO
FIND SEATS.
'WELL,' SAYS THE SOCIAL WORKER, 'THEN YOU MUST BE HERE TO SIGN UP. I'LL NEED
ALL YOUR CHILDREN'S NAMES.
WELL, TO KEEP IT SIMPLE, THE BOYS ARE ALL NAMED TERRY AND THE GIRLS ARE ALL
NAMED TERRI.
IN DISBELIEF, THE CASE WORKER SAYS, 'ARE YOU SERIOUS? THEY'RE ALL NAMED TERRY?
THEIR MOMMA REPLIED, 'WELL, YES - IT MAKES IT EASIER. WHEN IT'S TIME TO GET
THEM OUT OF BED AND READY FOR SCHOOL , I YELL, TERRY! AND WHEN IT'S TIME FOR
DINNER, I JUST YELL TERRY! AND THEY ALL COME A RUNNING. IF I NEED TO STOP THE
KID WHO'S RUNNING INTO THE STREET, I JUST YELL TERRY AND ALL OF THEM STOP. IT'S
THE SMARTEST IDEA I EVER HAD, NAMING THEM ALL TERRY.
THE SOCIAL WORKER THINKS THIS OVER FOR A BIT, THEN WRINKLES HER FOREHEAD AND
SAYS TENTATIVELY, 'BUT WHAT IF YOU JUST WANT ONE KID TO COME, AND NOT THE WHOLE
BUNCH?
'THEN I CALL THEM BY THEIR LAST NAMES.’
