A Texas rancher, visiting a South Dakota farmer friend, asked him to show him his farm.
After seeing the 1,000 acre spread, the Texan bragged that down home he could get into his car, drive all day, and by evening would not have gotten to the distant point of his ranch. The South Dakotan simply replied, “You know, I had a car like that once too.”

Betty was soon to be married. More than anything, she wanted to wear the wedding dress her mother was married in. Betty’s mother was beaming with pride as she gave her consent.
Later in the evening, the family gathered in the living room to wait while Betty tried on the dress. When Betty entered the room, there was a chorus of approval. The dress fit perfectly and looked wonderful on her. Tears ran down the face of Betty’s mother. Seeing this, Betty said, “Don’t worry Mom, you’re not losing a daughter, you’re gaining a son.” “Forget about that!” she said with a sob. “I used to fit into that dress!”
