This Yankee was driving through the countryside and got lost. So he sees a farmer leaning up against a fence near the road and stops. Gets out. Very politely asks for directions. The farmer gives him an explanation, pointing back the way he came, and the Yankee makes notes. All this time, there's a pig in the fenced area behind the farmer, rooting around in the dirt. Suddenly back behind the pig pen there's a bark from a dog, and the pig turns around. The Yankee sees that one of the pig's rear legs is gone and it has a wood peg leg in its place.

Thinking to himself that the pig with a wood leg is odd, he gestures toward it and asks the farmer, "Why does your pig have a wood leg?"

Farmer turns a bit, looks to make sure he's seeing the same thing as the Yankee, and says, "Oh, Pig here saved my life. House caught fire and Pig broke out of its pen, rushed in through the doggie door, and pulled at the blankets until me and the wife woke up. Yessir. Pig saved our lives."

The Yankee looked at him. Turned his head to the side like an owl. Looked at the pig with the wood leg. Looked back at the farmer. "So... why does your pig have a wood leg?"

Farmer looks at the Yankee with that "yer not from around here" gaze for about thirty seconds. Then he says, "Mister, you don't eat a pig like that all at once."

A reminder that protests have gotten a bad rap precisely because authorities invaded and corrupted them.

Thinking about having a Bust made of myself that I can use as a centerpiece at family gatherings. The six stake knives will have a family members name on the handles and the biggest knife will be planted between the shoulder blades with US government written on it.
