I heard the following riddle from an Australian cowboy I met in the mountains
of Montana:




Q:	If it takes a sheet and a half of galvanized iron to make a double-
breasted waistcoat for a lop-eared cricket, how long would it take duck to
wobble through a mile of treacle with hobnailed boots on?



A:	As long as you can hold dogsh*t in your mouth without dribbling.



Well, I thought it was funny, but then seeing nothing but horses and cows
for five days can put you into a rather peculiar state of mind.
