The Farmer Couldn’t Figure Out What Happened Next

A young farm couple, Homer and Darlene, got married and just couldn’t seem to get enough l0vin’.

In the morning, before Homer left the house for the fields, they m@de l0ve. When Homer came back from the fields, they m@de l0ve. And again at bedtime, they m@de l0ve.

The problem was their nooner — it took Homer a half hour to travel home and another half hour to return to the fields and he just wasn’t getting enough work done.

Finally Homer asked the town doctor what to do. “Homer,” said the doctor, “just take your rifle out to the field with you and when you’re in the mood, fire off a sh0t into the air. That will be Darlene’s signal to come out to you. Then you won’t lose any field time.”

They tried Doc’s advice and it worked well for a while. But then Homer went back to the doctor’s office.

“What’s wrong?” asked the Doc. “Didn’t my idea work?”

“Oh, it worked real well,” said Homer. “Whenever I was in the mood, I fired off a sh0t like you said and Darlene’d come runnin’. We’d find a secluded place, m@ke l0ve, and then she’d go back home again.”

“Good, Homer. So what’s the problem?” asked the Doc.

“I ain’t seen her since hu-ntin’ season started!”
