Subject: 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 stopped, rolled down the window of his pickup and shouted: "Trink das Wasser nicht, die Kühe haben Scheiße drin!"
This means: "Don't drink that water, the cows have crapped in it!"
The man shouted back: "I'm from New York and I'm down here to campaign for the Democratic National Committee. I didn't understand you. Speak in English, please."
The rancher replied: "You can drink more water using both hands."
