        Afraid of Bees

  

  

   

      <p style="text-indent: 33">A farmer and his wife decide to sell their land so they can move to Florida and retire. A

      prospective buyer comes by and likes the place, but there's only one problem: He's deathly afraid of bees and, on a tour of the property, he noticed a lot of them.

      <p style="text-indent: 33">The farmer says, &quot;There's always been bees around here, but in the 30 years I've owned the

      farm, I've never been stung once. I'll tell you what. &quot;Take off your clothes and let me tie you to that tree over there. If you're stung by a single bee, I'll give you

      the farm for nothing. But if you don't get stung, you have to buy the farm at my asking price.&quot;</p>

      <p style="text-indent: 33">The guy figures the possibility of a free farm is too good to pass up, so he agrees to the farmer's

      deal. The farmer ties him naked to the tree and goes to work in the fields. A few hours later, the farmer returns, only to find the man in a state of total exhaustion. He's a

      complete wreck. His knees are buckling and the only things holding him up are the tiny straps securing him to the tree trunk. The farmer is shocked. &quot;What on earth

      happened to you? You're a mess! Did the bees get you?&quot;</p>

      <p style="text-indent: 33">&quot;No,&quot; says the man, &quot;but doesn't that Calf have a mother?&quot;</p>
