This is undoubtedly one of the funniest jokes I have ever heard. Any back slider Amish out there with access to one of these modern electronic marvels, please don't take offense (on the other hand, you may be the ones who laugh the hardest). Those with internet access may have already seen it, I sent it in to the "time-out" section of the Parkinson Alliance home page a while back. - - - - - - - - - - - - An Amish lady is trotting down the road in her horse and buggy when she is pulled over by a cop. "Ma'am, I'm not going to ticket you, but I do have to issue you a warning. You have a broken reflector on your buggy." "Oh, I'll let my husband, Jacob, know as soon as I get home." "That's fine. Another thing, ma'am. I don't like the way that one rein loops across the horse's back and around one of his testicles. I consider that animal abuse. That's cruelty to animals. Have your husband take care of that right away!" Later that day, the lady is home telling her husband about her encounter with the cop. "Well, dear, what exactly did he say?" "He said the reflector is broken." "I can fix that in two minutes. What else?" "I'm not sure, Jacob ... something about the emergency brake..." - - - - - - - - - - - - - - There is an Amish community (Yoder) about 40 miles from here where we stop anytime we are going to see our oldest son and his family in Hutchinson or going to/from the State Fair. One of the finest places to eat in the whole plains area (Carriage Crossing Restaurant). I just can't resist looking at any horse and buggy that happens to be going down the road to see if they have the emergency brake installed.
