A cowboy in Texas gets pulled over by a State Trooper for
speeding. The trooper started to lecture the cowboy about his speeding,
and in general began to throw his weight around to try to make the
cowboy feel uncomfortable. Finally, the trooper got around to writing
out the ticket. As he was doing that, he kept swatting at some flies
that were buzzing around his head. The cowboy sez, "Y'all havin' some
problem with circle flies?" The trooper stopped writing the ticket and
said, "Well yeah, if that's what they're called. But I never heard of no
circle flies." "Well, sir," the cowboy replies, "circle flies hang
around ranches. They're called circle flies because they're almost
always found circling around the back end of a horse." The trooper says,
"Oh," and goes back to ! writing the ticket. But, a moment later he stops
and says, "Are you callin' me a horse's ass?" "No, sir," the cowboy
replies, "I have too much respect for law enforcement to call y'all a
horse's ass." "That's a good thing," the trooper says and goes back to
writing the ticket. After a long pause, the cowboy, in his best Texas
drawl says, "Hard to fool them flies though."
