Here in Texas , where I live, there is a town called New
Braunfels , where there is a large German-speaking population.
One day, a local rancher driving down a country road
noticed a man using his right hand to drink water from the rancher's
stock pond.
The rancher rolled down the window and shouted: "Sehr
angenehm! Trink das wasser nicht. Die kuhen haben dahin gesheissen."
Which means: "Glad to meet you! Don't drink the water. The cows have
chit in it."
The man shouted back: "I'm from New York and just down
here campaigning for Obama's health care plan. I can't understand you.
Please speak in English."
The rancher replied: "Use both hands. You'll get more."
