the old woman
An old woman rode into a dusty town and tied her mule to the hitching rail. As she dusted off her clothes, a young cowboy stumbled out of the saloon with a bottle of whiskey in one hand and a revolver in the other.
He looked at the old woman and said,
“Hey there, old lady — you ever danced?”
She looked at him calmly and said,
“No, I can’t say that I have.”
He smirked and said,
“Well, you’re about to learn.”
Then he started firing his gun at the ground near her feet.
Not wanting to lose a toe, the old woman started hopping around while the crowd laughed and the cowboy kept shooting.
When he ran out of bullets, he laughed, spun his gun, and started to walk away.
The old woman calmly walked over to her mule, reached into a saddlebag, and pulled out a double-barreled shotgun. She cocked both hammers, and the loud click echoed down the street. Everything went quiet.
The cowboy stopped, slowly turned around, and found himself staring straight down the barrels of that shotgun.
The old woman looked at him and said,
“Son, have you ever kissed a mule?”
The cowboy swallowed hard and said,
“No, ma’am… but I’m willing to learn.” 😬
A few lessons from the Old West:
Don’t be arrogant.
Don’t waste your ammunition.
Whiskey can make you think you’re smarter than you are.
Always know who you’re dealing with.
And never mess with old folks… they didn’t get old by being foolish. 💪
