愚人笑话|Room and board

A salesman sTOPped at a farmhouse^{1 one evening to ask for room and board for the night.}

The farmer told him there was no vacant rooms.

The salesman he was very tired and he would take any bed, he'd even share a room as he had been driving all day.

I could let you sleep with my daughter, the redneck farmer said, if you promise not to bother her.

The salesman agreed. After a hearty^{2 supper, he was led to the room. He undressed in the dark, slipped into bed, and felt the farmer's daughter at his side.}

The next morning he asked for his bill.

It'll be just two dollars, since you had to share the bed, the farmer said.

Your daughter was very cold, the salesman said.

Yes, I know, said the farmer. We're going to bury her today.
