Subject: It always pays to ask why?
A Minnesota Department of Highways employee stopped at a farm and talked
with an old farmer. He told the farmer, "I need to inspect your farm
for a possible new road."
The old farmer said, "OK, but don't go in that field."
The Highways employee said, "I have the authority of the State of
Minnesota to go where I want. See this card? I am allowed to go
wherever I wish on farm land."
So the old farmer went about his farm chores.
Later, he heard loud screams and saw the Department of Highways dude
running for the fence and close behind was the farmer's bull. The bull
was madder than a nest full of hornets and it was gaining on the
employee at every step.
The farmer hollered, "Show him your card, smart a$$!"
