Butt-washing Funny

  Part Two

  Tall Ones

  Growing up in Central Illinois during the Forties and Fifties, storytelling was a big part of the Midwest entertainment. Small town characters often vied for the first to tell a good story or a great line.

  Tall Ones are not told to be believed, they are told to entertain, such as:

  "Damn, Hubert, that truck of yours looks like it was drove through hog slop.”

  “Yeah, I know, told my wife to wash it. But you know, ever since she got pregnant can’t get her to do a dang thing.”

  Did you hear about the semi-retired proctologist? He still likes to keep a finger in it.

  You know what an elephant keeps in his trunk? Six feet of snot.
