In light of our recent fall-like weather and football season starting, we are bringing to you a blonde joke that makes football make sense. A guy took his blonde girlfriend to the Super Bowl. They had great seats right behind the team bench. After the game, he asked her how she liked it. *Oh, I really liked it,* she said. *Especially the tight pants and big muscles. I just don*t understand why there were trying to kill each other over $.25.*

Dumbfounded, the boyfriend asked her what she meant. She said, *Well at the start they flipped a coin, one team got it, and then they spent the rest of the game yelling get the quarter back, get the quarter back. I*m like, helloooo...it*s only $.25!*

Two hillbillies walk into a restaurant. While having a bite to eat, they talk about their moonshine operation. Suddenly, a woman at a nearby table begins to cough. After a minute or so, it becomes apparent that she is in real distress. One of the hillbillies looks at her and says, *Kin ya swaller?* The woman shakes her head no. Then he asks, *Kin ya breathe?*  The woman starts to turn blue and shakes her head no. The hillbilly walks up to the woman, lifts her dress, yanks down her drawers, and gives her right butt cheek a lick with his tongue. The woman is so shocked that she has a violent spasm and the obstruction flies out of her mouth. As she begins to breathe again, the hillbilly walks slowly back to his table. His partner says, *Ya know, I*d heerd of that there *Hind Lick Maneuver* but I ain*t niver seed nobody do it!*

We received 4-6 inches of rain in the past day or so, so all of  the hay was wet. Alfalfa sold almost steady. Grass sold about steady. Cornstalks sold a little weaker on the outside stalks, and a little stronger on the inside stalks. We did not have any straw today.

After 10 years a wife started to think that their child looked a little strange, so she had a DNA test done and found out that the child was not theirs. She told her husband what she had found out. The husband replied, *You don*t remember, do you? When we were leaving the hospital and the baby pooped himself, you told me to go change him. So I went inside and got a cleanone and left the dirty one there.* The wife fainted.
