[CS-FSLUG] PD: POST TURTLE

[Fred Miller]

A POST TURTLE

While suturing a laceration on the hand of an 80-year-old grizzled Texas
rancher (whose hand had caught in a gate while working cattle), a doctor
and the old man were talking about John Kerry's possibility of being in
the White House.

The old Texan said, "Well, ya know, Kerry's one of them 'post turtles'."

Not knowing what the old man meant, the doctor asked him what a post
turtle was.

The old man said, "Well, when you're driving down a country road and you
come across a fence post with a turtle balanced on top, that's a "post
turtle."

The old man saw a puzzled look on the doctor's face, so he continued to
explain, "You know he didn't get up there by himself, he doesn't belong
there, he can't get anything done while he's up there, and you just
want to help the poor dumb reptile get down 'afore he hurts hisself."
