Peaches

An old Texas farmer had been through a very difficult year and
was reduced to selling his peaches door to door in an attempt to
make ends meet. He knocked on a door and a shapely 40-something
woman, dressed in a very sheer negligee, answered the door.

He raised his basket to show her the peaches and asked, "Would
you like to buy some peaches?"

She pulled the top of the negligee to one side and asked, "Are
they as firm as this?"

He nodded his head and said, "Yes ma'am," as a little tear ran
from his eye.

Then she pulled the other side of her negligee off asking, "Are
they nice and pink like this?"

The old farmer said, "Yes," and another tear came from the
other eye.

Then the lady unbuttoned the bottom of her negligee and asked,
"Are they as fuzzy as this?"

He again said, "Yes," and broke down crying.

The woman asked, "Why on earth are you crying?"

Drying his eyes, the old guy replied, "The drought got my corn.
The flood got my soy beans. A tornado leveled my barn and now …
I'm gonna get screwed out of my peaches."
