GROANER’S CORNER:(( A man owned a small ranch in Texas. The Texas Wage & Hour Dept. claimed he was not paying proper wages to his help and sent an agent out to interview him.
"I need a list of your employees and how much you pay them," demanded the agent."
"Well," replied the rancher, "There's my ranch hand who's been with me for 3 years. I pay him $600 a week plus free room and board."
"The cook has been here for 18 months, and I pay her $500 per week plus free room and board."
"Then there's the half-wit who works about 18 hours every day and does about 90% of all the work around here. He makes about $10 per week, pays his own room and board and I buy him a bottle of bourbon every Saturday night."
"That's the guy I want to talk to, the half-wit," says the agent.
"That would be me," replied the rancher.

  4. The killdeer is going to have some cute little chicks soon.

    I love to see the farms, bales of hay, etc. So soothing, although maybe something different to the farmer.

  5. Farm Living is the life for me, wifey has other plans. Enjoyed the pics. The eggs are well hidden in plain sight.

  6. I love Killdeer - they have such pretty markings and sometimes I see them in unusual places. Great photo catch - sitting on all those eggs. Don't you love it when you see something cool while editing?

    The joke is funny! And probably true in a lot of cases. :)
