Texas Duck Hunt

[Chain Gang]

The Texas Duck Hunt
>>
>> A big city lawyer went duck hunting in rural Texas. He shot and dropped a
>> bird, but it fell into a farmer's field on the other side of a fence.
>>
>> As the lawyer climbed over the fence, an elderly farmer drove up on his
>> tractor and asked him what he was doing.
>>
>> The litigator responded, "I shot a duck and it fell in this field, and
>> now I'm going to retrieve it."
>> The old farmer replied, "This is my property, and you are not coming over
>> here."
>>
>> The indignant lawyer said, "I am one of the best trial attorneys in the
>> United States and, if you don't let me get that duck, I'll sue you and
>> take everything you own.
>>
>> The old farmer smiled and said," Apparently, you don't know how we settle
>> disputes in Texas. We settle small disagreements like this with the
>> "Three Kick Rule."
>> The lawyer asked, "What is the Three Kick Rule?"
>> The Farmer replied, "Well, because the dispute occurs on my land, first I
>> kick you three times and then you kick me three times and so on back and
>> forth until someone gives up."
>>
>> The attorney quickly thought about the proposed contest and decided that
>> he could easily take the old codger. He agreed to abide by the local
>> custom.
>>
>> The old farmer slowly climbed down from the tractor and walked up to the
>> attorney. His first kick planted the toe of his heavy steel toed work
>> boot into the lawyer's groin and dropped him to his knees. His second
>> kick to the midriff then made the lawyer loose his early morning
>> breakfast. The lawyer was on all fours when the farmer's third kick to
>> his rear end sent him face-first into a fresh cow pie.
>>
>> The lawyer summoned every bit of his will and managed to get to his feet.
>> Wiping his face with the arm of his jacket, he said, "Okay, now it's my
>> turn."
>>
>> The old farmer smiled and said, "Naw, I give up. You can have the duck."
