An atheist was seated next to an old cowboy on a plane and turned to him, saying, \u201cWould you like to chat? Flights go faster when you strike up a conversation with your seatmate.\u201d
\nThe cowboy, who had just started reading his book, looked up and replied, \u201cWell, what would you want to talk about?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cOh, I don\u2019t know,\u201d the atheist said with a smirk. \u201cHow about why there\u2019s no God, no Heaven or Hell, and no life after death?\u201d<\/p>\n
The cowboy paused, then said, \u201cThose could be interesting topics, but let me ask you something first. A horse, a cow, and a deer all eat grass. Yet, a deer leaves little pellets, a cow produces flat patties, and a horse makes clumps. Why do you think that is?\u201d<\/p>\n
The atheist, caught off guard by the question, thought for a moment and admitted, \u201cI have no idea.\u201d<\/p>\n
The cowboy leaned back, tipped his hat, and said, \u201cThen how can you talk about God, Heaven, Hell, or life after death when you don\u2019t know crap?\u201d<\/p>\n
LOL!!<\/p>\n
An Old Cowboy Gets 3 Wishes
\nA modern-day old cowboy has spent many days crossing the desert without water.
\nHe\u2019s crawling through the sand, certain that he has breathed his last when he suddenly sees an object sticking out of the sand several yards ahead of him.<\/p>\n
He crawls towards the object, pulls it out of the sand, and discovers what looks like an old briefcase.<\/p>\n
He opens it, and out pops a genie.<\/p>\n
But this is no ordinary genie. She wears an AUSTRALIAN TAXATION OFFICE badge and a dull grey dress.<\/p>\n
There is a calculator in her pocketbook.<\/p>\n
She has a pencil tucked behind one ear.<\/p>\n
\u201cWell, old cowboy,\u201d said the genie\u2026 \u201cYou know how I work. You have three wishes.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m not falling for this\u201d, says the old man.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m not going to trust an ATO auditor genie.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat do you have to lose? You have no transportation, and it looks like you are a goner anyway!\u201d<\/p>\n
The old man thinks about this for a minute and decides the genie is right.<\/p>\n
Shazam!<\/p>\n
\u201cOK, I wish I were in a lush oasis with lots of food and drink.\u201d<\/p>\n
Shazam!<\/p>\n
The old cowboy is in the most beautiful oasis he has ever seen, surrounded by jugs of wine and platters of delicacies.<\/p>\n
OK, old boy, what\u2019s your second wish?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cMy second wish is for me to be rich beyond my wildest dreams.\u201d<\/p>\n
Shazam!<\/p>\n
The old man is surrounded by treasure chests filled with rare gold coins and precious gems.<\/p>\n
\u201cOkay, cowpuncher, you just have one wish. Better make it a good one!\u201d<\/p>\n
After a few minutes of thinking, the man says.<\/p>\n
\u201cI wish that no matter where I go, beautiful women will want and need me.\u201d<\/p>\n
Shazam!<\/p>\n
He is turned into a t-a.mpon.<\/p>\n
Moral of the story<\/p>\n
If the government offers you anything, there\u2019s going to be a string attached.<\/p>\n
