Two Texas farmers, Jim and Bob, are sitting
at their favourite bar, drinking beer.
Jim turns to Bob and says, "You know, I'm tired of going
through life without an education. Tomorrow I think I'll go
to the community college, and sign up for some classes."
Bob thinks it's a good idea, and the two leave. The next
day, Jim goes down to the college and meets the Dean
of Admissions, who signs him up for the four basic
classes: Math, English, History, and Logic.
"Logic?" Jim says. "What's that?"
The dean says, "I'll give you an example.
Do you own a weed eater?"
"Yeah."
"Then logically speaking, because you own a
weed eater, I think that you would have a yard."
"That's true, I do have a yard."
"I'm not done", the dean says. "Because you have
a yard, I think logically that you would have a house."
"Yes, I do have a house."
"And, because you have a house, I think
that you might logically have a family."
"Yes, I have a family."
"I'm not done yet. Because you have a family,
then logically you must have a wife. And
because you have a wife, then logic tells
me you must be a heterosexual."
"I am a heterosexual. That's amazing, you were able
to find out all of that because I have a weed eater."
Excited to take the class now, Jim shakes the Dean's
hand, and leaves to go meet Bob at the bar. He tells
Bob about his classes, and that he is signed up for
Math, English, History, and Logic.
"Logic?" Bob says, "What's that?"
Jim says, "I'll give you an example.
Do you have a weed eater?"
"No."
"....Then you're a queer."
