Title:     an old farmer
Date:      Wed May 30 10:08:48 2007

A big city lawyer went duck hunting in rural Tennessee.
He shot and dropped a bird, but it fell into a farmer's field on the other 
side of a fence.
As the lawyer climbed over the fence, an  elderly  farmer drove up on his 
tractor and asked him what he was doing.
The litigator responded, "I shot a duck and it fell in this field, and now 
I'm going to retrieve it."
The old farmer replied, "This is my property, and you are not coming over 
here."
The indignant lawyer said, "I am one of the best trial attorneys in the 
United States and, if you don't let me get that duck, I'll sue you
and take everything you own.
The old farmer smiled and said, "Apparently, you don't know how we settle 
disputes in Tennessee. We settle small disagreements like  this
with the "Three Kick Rule."
The lawyer asked, "What is the Three Kick Rule?"
The Farmer replied, "Well, because the dispute occurs on my land, I get to go 
first. I kick you three times and then you kick me three
times and so on back and forth until someone gives up."
The attorney quickly thought about the proposed contest and decided that he 
could easily take the old codger. He agreed to abide by the
local custom.
The old farmer slowly climbed down from the tractor and walked up to the 
attorney. His first kick planted the toe of his heavy steel toed
work boot into the lawyer's groin and dropped him to his knees. His second  
kick to the midriff sent the lawyer's last meal gushing from
his mouth.
The lawyer was on all fours when the farmer's third kick to his rear end, 
sent him face-first into a fresh cow pie.
The lawyer summoned every bit of his will and managed to get to his feet.
Wiping his face with the arm of his jacket, he said, "Okay, you old fart. Now 
it's my turn."
The old farmer smiled and said, "Nah, I give up. You can have the duck."
