Alabama Wisdom

A young fella from Alabama was stopped by a Tennessee game warden in Northwest Tennessee recently with two ice chests of fish, leaving a small lake well known for its fishing. The game warden asked the man, "Do you have a license to catch those fish?"

"Naw, my friend, I ain't got no license...don't really need one, nope. These here are my pet fish."

"Pet fish?"

"Yep...pert' near every night I take em' down to the lake and let em' swim 'round for a while. Then I whistle and they jump rat back into this here ice chest and I take 'em home."

"That's a bunch of hooey! Fish can't do that!"


The young fella looked at the game warden for a moment then said, "It's the truth my fri! end. I'll show you. It really works."

"Okay, I've GOT to see this!"

The young fella poured the fish into the lake and stood and waited.

After several minutes, the game warden turned to him and said, "Well?"

"Well, what?" said the fella.

"When are you going to call them back?"

"Call who back?"

"The FISH."

"What fish?"



We in Alabama may not be as smart as some, but we aren't as dumb as most.

A couple has a dog who snores. Annoyed because she can't sleep, the wife
goes to the vet to see if he can help. The vet tells the woman to
tie a ribbon around the dog's testicles and he will stop snoring. "Yeah right!" she says.

That night a few minutes after going to bed, the dog begins snoring, as
usual. The wife tosses and turns, unable to sleep. Muttering to herself,
she goes to the closet and grabs a piece of red ribbon and ties it carefully around the dog's testicles. Sure enough, the dog stops snoring!
The woman is amazed!

Later that night, her husband returns home drunk from being out drinking
with his buddies. He climbs into bed, falls asleep and begins snoring loudly. The woman thinks maybe the ribbon trick might work on him. So she goes to the closet again, grabs a piece of blue ribbon and ties it around her husband's testicles.

Amazingly, it also works on him! ! The woman sleeps soundly.

He wakes from his drunken stupor and stumbles into the bathroom. As he
stands in front of the toilet, he glances in the mirror and sees a blue
ribbon attached to his privates. He is very confused and as he walks
back into the bedroom, he sees the red ribbon attached to his dog's
testicles. He shakes his head, looks at the dog and whispers, "I don't know
where we were, or, what we did, but, by God, we took first and second place!"

Andyman: I first heard that gag back in the 70's in a song called "The Scotsman" by a North Carolina troubador named Mike Cross. Not certain if he wrote it, adapted it or what, but thanks for the refreshment! :rockon:

I've seen him live several times out in Winfield, KS at the big bluegrass festival in September. Very funny guy and a multi-talented multi-instrumentalist. I especially like "Directions" and "The Red Corvette".
