SPEAKING GERMAN IN TEXAS

SPEAKING GERMAN IN TEXAS
 
In Texas there is a town called New Braunfels , where there is a large German-speaking population.
 
One day, a local rancher driving down a country road noticed a man using his hand to drink water from the rancher's stock pond.
 
The rancher rolled down the window and shouted: "Sehr angenehm! Trink das Wasser nicht. Die kuehe haben darein geschissen."
 
Which in German means: "Glad to meet you! Don't drink the water. The cows have shit in it."
 
The man shouted back: "I'm from New York and just down here campaigning for Obama.  I can't understand you.  Please speak in English."
 
The rancher replied: "Use both hands!".
