Mule and Wife

The local farmer had a wife who nagged him all the time. One day while
he was outside plowing the field, she came out and started nagging
him. While she was doing this, the mule kicked her and she died. At
the funeral, the ladies came up and talked to the farmer. The farmer
nodded his head "yes". The men came up and talked to him and the
farmer nodded his head "no".

One of the towns elders saw what was happening and wondered why he
nodded his head "yes" to the ladies and "no" to the men. Then, he went
up to the farmer and asked him why.

The farmer replied," Well, when the ladies came up, they told me how
pretty my wife's dress was and how pretty she looked. When the men
came up, they asked,' That mule for sale?'
