The Joke…
A farmer has two sons. One day, his oldest son comes to him and pleads with him that he is graduating from school and would really like to get a car. His father says, “Son, come with me.” He takes him to the barn and points to the farm tractor and says, “That tractor is needed here on the farm and I promise that as soon as it’s paid for, we’ll get you a car.”
The boy was not too happy but he did understand that situation and said, “Okay, Dad.” A week later, his second son (10 years old) approaches him wanting a new two-wheel bicycle. Well, he gets the same excuse, “as soon as that tractor is paid for…”
While leaving the barn, the young boy, more than a little disgusted with the whole thing, sees a rooster mating with one of the hens and promptly goes over and kicks the rooster off the hens back, mumbling to himself the whole time.
His dad says, “Son, why on earth would you do something like that? He didn’t do anything to you to deserve that!”
The little boy looks Dad right square in the eye and says, “Hey, nobody rides anything around here until that damn tractor is paid for!”

The Fact…
The first copies of the Bram Stoker’s classic novel ‘Dracula’ came out 128 years ago. The immortalized (no pun intended) vampire tale went on sale on May 26, 1897 in London, England. To many, May 26th is considered World Dracula Day.
