A young man graduated from the University of Oxford with a
degree in journalism. His first assignment for the newspaper that
hired him was to write a human-interest story. Being from
Oxfordshire, he went back to the country to do his research. He went
to an old farmer's house way back in the hills,
introduced himself and proceeded to explain to him why he was there.
The young man asked, "What's the most exciting thing that ever
happened around here?"
The farmer thought for a minute and said, " One timeone of my
neighbour's sheep got lost.
We formed a posse
and found it. Then
we all screwed it and took it back home."
"I can't print that!" the young man exclaimed. "Can you think of
anything else exciting that happened?"
After another moment, the farmer said, "Yeah, one time my
neighbour's daughter,
a good looking girl, got lost. We formed a
big posse that time
and found her. After we all screwed her, we took her back home."
Again, the young man said "I can't print that either. Okay let try something else. What's the most terrible thing that ever happened around here?"
The old farmer dropped his head and after a few seconds looked up
timidly at the young man and said,
"I got lost once."
