**Farmer Evans was driving his John Deere tractor along the road with a trailer load of fertilizer. Tim, a little boy of eight was playing in his yard when he saw the farmer and asked, “What’ve you got in your trailer?” “Manure,” Farmer Evans replied. “What are you going to do with it? “ asked Tim. “Put it on my strawberries,” answered the farmer. Tim replied, “You ought to come eat with us, we put ice-cream on our strawberries.”

**An elderly couple go to Burger King where they carefully split a burger and fries. A trucker takes pity on them and offers to buy the wife her own meal. “It’s alright,” says the husband. “We share everything.” A few minutes later, the trucker notices that the wife hasn’t taken a bite. “I really wouldn’t mind buying her her own meal,” he insists. “She’ll eat,” the husband assures him. “We share everything.” Unconvinced, the trucker asks the wife, “Why won’t you eat?” The wife snaps, “Because I’m waiting for the teeth!”
