How did it happen ?" the doctor asked the middle-aged farmhand as he set the man's broken leg.
"Well, doc, about 20 some odd years ago ..."
"Never mind the past. Tell me how you broke your leg this
morning."
"Like I was sayin' ... 20 er so years ago, when I first started workin' on the farm, that night, right after I'd got in bed, the
farmer's beautiful daughter came into my room ...
She asked me if there was anythin' I wanted, and I said, "No, everythin's jus' fine."
"Are you sure ?" she asked me. "I'm sure," I tol' her. 'Isn't there anything I can do for you ?' she wanted to know.
'I reckon not,' I said."
"Excuse me," said the doctor, "But, what does this story have to do with your leg ?"
"Well, doc ... this mornin'," the farmhand explained, "when it suddenly dawned on me, outta' the blue, what she meant,
I fell off the roof."
