Farmers and the weather

Some slight exaggerations (i.e. whoppers) about farmers and the weather - very funny!

Farmers have a constant battle with the weather.  first, it’s so dry in the Southwest that there are cracks in the ground six inches wide.  You can drop a chain down the crack and hear it rattle for five minutes.  The trees in Oklahoma lean toward the dogs.  Catfish in a Texas river are two years old, and they still haven’t learned how to swim.  Rain has only 30 percent moisture.  I was in Ames when they had that terrible drought in central Iowa a few years ago.  A farmer told me, “They had raind down at Creston, but I didn’t go down to watch it.”

Then it turns wet in Indiana and you need a life-raft with your tractor or combine.  You have to wear boots just to look out the window.  The Red Cross warns on Indianapolis TV that we shouldn’t plow until an hour after we get done eating.  Farmers have to jack up their cows to milk them.  I had a farmer at Lebanon tell me, “I had a bucket without a bottom hanging on a fence post.  Believe it or not, last Friday that bucket was half full of water.”
