Mirror
After living in the remote wilderness of Kentucky all his life, an old codger decided it was time to visit the big city.
In one of the city’s stores, he picked up a mirror and looked in it.
Not knowing what it was, he remarked, “How about that! Here’s a picture of my daddy.”
He bought the “picture,” but on the way home remembered that his wife, Lizzy, didn’t much like his father.
So he hung it in the barn, and every morning before leaving for the fields, he would go there and look at it.
The man’s many trips to the barn began to draw Lizzy’s suspicion. One day after her husband left, she searched the barn and found the mirror.
As she looked into the glass, she fumed, “So that’s the ugly cow he’s running around with.”
