My farm... (God help me!)

...the majority is always wrong, and always the last to know about it...

Insanity: Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results...

A solution is nothing more than a clearly stated problem...otherwise, the problem is not a problem, it is a facct

    Three family farmers meet at the diner for coffee on a cold winter morning. The conversation wanders on until a kibitzer asks them to tell what they'd do if they won the lottery.

    Farmer One ponders; then announces he'd go to Florida or California... "and take my Grandkids to Disneyland."

    The others nod and Farmer Two speaks up: "Well, my idea is for just the wife and me: a cruise around the world on the fanciest boat we can find."

    One mutters an acknowledgement; Three clears his throat.

    "Those are right interesting, but I 'spect I'll just keep right on farmin' 'till I go broke."




    Quis custodiet ipsos custodes. Juvenal, Satires

      The version I heard was not quite as good. Went something like; Having won the lottery, a life-long farmer was asked what he would do with all the money he won. "Keep on farming 'til it's gone." was his reply.

      Yup, I reckon so...

      ...the majority is always wrong, and always the last to know about it...

      Insanity: Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results...

      A solution is nothing more than a clearly stated problem...otherwise, the problem is not a problem, it is simply an inconvenient fact

        Gosh, how terible...

    You do have a license for the marijuana, right? :)
