The Old Rancher

1

The Old Rancher

The banker saw his old friend Tom, an eighty-year old rancher, in town.

Tom had lost his wife a year or so before and rumor had it that he was  marrying a ‘mail order’ bride.

Being a good friend, the banker asked Tom if the rumor was true.

Tom  assured him that it was.

The banker then asked Tom the age of his new bride to be.

Tom proudly said,   ‘She’ll be twenty-one in  November.’

Now the banker, being the wise man that he was, could see that the  sexual appetite of a young woman could not be satisfied by an eighty-year-old man.

Wanting his old friend’s remaining years to be happy the banker tactfully suggested that Tom should consider getting a hired hand to help him out on the ranch, knowing nature would take its own course.

Tom thought this was a good idea and said he would look for one that afternoon.

About four months later, the banker ran into Tom in town again. ‘How’s the new wife?’, asked the banker.

Tom proudly said, ‘Good – she’s pregnant.’

The banker, happy that his sage advice had worked out, continued, ‘And how’s the hired hand?’

Without hesitating, Tom said, ‘She’s pregnant too.’

Don’t ever underestimate us old Guys.
