he Wind Sure Does Blow....."
A visitor asked a West Texas cowboy, "Do you
ever get tornadoes out here?"
The cowboy replied, "Yeah, we had one a while back,
but it ran into a sandstorm outside of town and got
ripped to pieces." The wind blows so hard out in West
Texas that at a drive-in theater it once blew Gene Autry
right out of the saddle."
A visitor to Amarillo asked a local rancher, "How do you
stand the wind blowing every single day?"
The rancher said, "You just have to get used to it -- learn
to lean into it. In fact, one day last fall the wind stopped
blowing all of a sudden, and all the cattle in the panhandle
plumb fell over."
It was so windy the prairie dogs were digging holes 40
feet in the air.
During a period of heavy sandstorms, a rancher visited
his banker and applied for a loan. The banker warned him,
"I'll have to come out and inspect the property first."
The rancher replied, "That won't be necessary. Here it
comes now."

"White Lighting"
A hillbilly came to town carrying a jug of moonshine
in one hand and a shotgun in the other. He stopped
a man on the street, saying to him: "Here friend, take
a drink outa my jug." The man protested, saying he
never drank. The hillbilly leveled his shotgun at the
stranger and commanded: "Drink!"
The stranger drank, shuddered, shook, shivered and
coughed. "Darn!! That's awful stuff you've got there."
"Ain't it, though?" replied the hillbilly. "Here! Now, you
hold the gun on me while I take a swig."
