A young farm boy from West Texas moved to Dallas and went in to a "everything under one roof dept. store",looking for a job
The mgr. asked him"Do you have any experience?'
The boy said "yes Sir,I sold our crops at market"
The mgr.liked the boy and gave him the job
"You can start today,and when we close I'll come see how you have done".
When the work day was done ,The mgr.went to see his new salesman
"How many sales did you make today"he asked the boy
"Just one Sir"the boy replied
The mgr.exclaimed"Just one?Our salespeople average 20 to 30 sales a day.Tell me son,just how much was your one sale for?"
The boy replied"$101,267. 67 Sir"
The mgr was astounded."What the hell did you sell?"
"Well Sir,This guy bought a small fish hook,and then he bought a larger fish hook.
Them I sold him a rod and reel."the boy replied
The boy continued"I asked him where he was going fishing,and he said he was going to Lake Fork in east Texas.
So I told him he was going to need a boat.
I took him to our boat dept.,and I sold him a seventeen foot "Skeeter'with a 200 hp Yamaha engine and a foot controlled trolling motor.
then the guy said that he doubted that his Honda Civic would be sufficient to pull the big boat,so I took him to our Automotive dept.and sold him a Ford 1500"
The mgr. was amazed"You are telling me a guy came in to buy a fish hook,and you sold him a high priced boat and a truck to pull it?"
The boy said" Oh,no Sir,The guy came in to buy tampons for his wife.and I said Dude,your weekend is f---ed.You might as well go fishing"

Nah, but it is a very old Texas joke. I would've told it myself, but deferred it to BB, who is a very much older Texan than I am.

I noticed that you two have opted for more attractive avatars. Has something changed?
