THE
HITCHHIKER'S COW
Sam, a business man was driving home after
long sales trip and saw a hitchhiker with a cow. Sam finally stopped and the hitchhiker
approached the window and said, "Will you give me a ride to Denver Sir?"
Sam was amazed and said, "I do not
mind, but you will have to leave your cow here."
"No Sir," the hitchhiker said.
"I will just tie her to the back of the car, and I promise you sir, she will not slow
you down. I Promise."
The business man was reluctant, but he was
dying for company, so he agreed. The hitchhiker was elated and tied the cow to the back
bumper.
They started out and Sam took the car up to
10 miles per hour, he looked in the mirror and the cow seemed to be trotting along. 20
mph, 30 mph, 40 mph, did not phase the cow. The hitchhiker looked over to Sam and assured
him that the cow would be fine, not to worry.
Sam took the car up to 55 mph and still the
cow was looking very comfortable. Now Sam was getting a little frustrated by this cow who
could keep up with his car. Sam watched the speedometer go to 65, 75 and finally 90 mph.
Sam looked back and FINALLY the cow seemed
tired, "I got you, you son of ........"
"What is the matter?" the
hitchhiker asked.
"Your cow seems tired, her tongue is
sticking out," the business man said.
"Is it sticking out on the left, or
the right?" the hitchhiker asked.
"The left side," Sam said with a
smile.
"Well," the hitchhiker said,
"You better pull over, she is trying to pass you."
