Don't Mess With Texas

A cowboy rode into a Kansas town and stopped at a saloon for a beer.

The locals thought they'd have some fun at his expense. When the cowboy finished his beer and walked outside, he found his horse had been stolen.

He re-entered the bar, flipped his six-gun into the air, caught it above his head without even looking and fired a shot into the ceiling.

"Who. Stole. Mah. Horse?" he asked, looking menacingly at the other customers.

No one answered.

"Ah'm gonna have another beer. And if mah horse ain't back outside by the time Ah'm finished, Ah'm gonna do what Ah done back in Tayksus. And Ah don't wanna have to *do* whut Ah done back in Tayksus!"

The locals shifted restlessly.

The cowboy had another beer, walked outside, and his horse was back. He saddled up and started to ride out of town.

The bartender wandered out of the bar and asked, "Say partner, just what *did* you do in Texas?"

The cowboy turned back and said, "Had to walk home."

Heh. H/t to ChinaBoy

Sometimes I think the most important quality a national leader should possess is a sense of humor.

Remind me to stay out of Odessa...

How funny, we have the same joke about a stolen luggage at the Leningrad's train station "otherwise, it would be like in Odessa... So, citizen, how would have it been in Odessa?? - They would not have ever returned the bags"

Hope Lex spots this, what with his current interest in all things Tejano.
