Old Farmer - Scroll Saw Woodworking & Crafts Message Board

This may have been posted befor but I couldn't find it.

The old farmer had a large pond in the back, fixed
up nicely with picnic tables, a barbecue pit,
horseshoe courts, and some apple and peach
trees. The pond was properly shaped and
fixed up for swimming when it was built.

One evening, the old guy decided to go down to
the pond and look it over. He hadn't been there
for a while. He grabbed a five gallon bucket to
bring back some fruit.

As he neared the pond, he heard voices shouting
and laughing with glee. As he came closer, he saw
it was a bunch of young women skinny dipping in
his pond. As he approached, he made the women
aware of his presence.

At once, they all went to the deep end.

One of the women shouted to him, "We're not
coming out until you leave."

The old man frowned, "I did not come down here
to watch you young ladies swim naked, or to make
you get out of the pond naked."

Holding up the bucket, he said, "I'm here to feed
the alligator."
