I like this one, too.
Mr. Peabody, the local banker, saw his old friend Pete, an 80-year-old
rancher, in town.
Pete had lost his wife the year before. Rumor had it he was marrying a 'mail
order' bride.
Mr. Peabody asked Pete if the rumor was true.
Pete replied, "Yes, it is true."
Mr. Peabody asked, "May I ask the age of your new bride to be?"
Pete replied, "She'll be 21 in November."
Mr. Peabody, being a wise man, knew the sexual appetite of a young woman
could not be satisfied by an 80-year-old man.
Mr. Peabody wanted Pete's remaining years to be happy. So he tactfully
suggested that Pete should consider getting a hired hand to help him out on
the ranch, knowing nature would take its own course.
Pete thought this was a good idea and said he would look for a hired hand
that very afternoon.
Four months later, Mr. Peabody saw Pete in town again.
Mr. Peabody asked, "How is your new wife?"
Pete replied, "Good. She's pregnant."
Mr. Peabody was pleased his sage advice had worked out so well.
He asked, "And how's the hired hand?"
Without hesitating, Pete said, "She's pregnant too!"
Never underestimate old men.
