A farmer was sitting in the neighborhood bar slowly getting drunk.

A man came in and asked the farmer, “Hey, why are you sitting here on this beautiful day getting drunk?”

The farmer said, “Some things you just can’t explain.”

“So what happened that was so horrible?” the man asked.

The farmer answered, “Well if you must know, today I was sitting by my cow milking her.

She kicked it over with her left hind leg.”

“That’s not so bad, what’s the big deal?” said the man.

The farmer said, “Some things you just can’t explain.”

“So what happened?” the man asked again.

The farmer continued, “I took her left leg and tied it to the post with some rope.

Then I sat down and continued to milk her.

She kicked it over with her right hind leg.” “Again?” the man said.

The farmer said, “Some things you just can’t explain.”

“So, what did you do then?” the man asked, intrigued.

“I took her right leg and tied it to the post on the right.

I sat back down and continued to milk her, and just as I got the bucket just about full, the stupid cow knocked over the bucket with her tail,” answered the farmer.

“Wow, you must have been pretty upset!” but that’s no reason to just sit here getting all depressed,” said the man.

The farmer said, “Some things you just can’t explain.”

“So then what else did you do?” the man asked again.

“Well I didn’t have any more rope, so I took off my belt and tied her tail to the rafter.

That’s when my pants fell down and my wife walked in.

Some things you just can’t explain.”
