Â
An old farmer had owned a large farm for several years. He had a large pond in the
back forty, fixed up nice; picnic tables, horseshoe courts, basketball court, etc.
The pond was properly shaped and fixed up for swimming when it was built. One evening the
old farmer decided to go down to the pond, as he hadn't been there for a while, and look
it over. As he neared the pond, he heard voices shouting and laughing with
glee. As he came closer he saw it was a bunch of young women skinny dipping in
his pond.
He made the women aware of his presence and they all went to the deep end of the pond. One
of the women shouted to him, "We're not coming out until you leave!" The old man
replied, "I didn't come down here to watch you ladies swim or make you get out of the
pond naked. "I only came to feed the alligator."
Moral of this story? Old age and treachery will triumph over youth and skill.
