An Amish woman was driving her buggy to town when a highway patrol officer stopped her...
"I'm not going to cite you," said the officer, "I just wanted to warn you that the reflector on the back of your buggy is broken and it could be dangerous."

"I thank thee," replied the Amish lady. "I shall have my husband repair it as soon as I return home."

"Also," said the officer, "I noticed one of your reins to your horse is wrapped around his testicles. Some people might consider this cruelty to animals, so you should have your husband check that, too."

"Again I thank thee. I shall have my husband check both when I get home."

True to her word, when the Amish lady got home she told her husband about the broken reflector, and he said he would put a new one on it immediately.

"Also," said the Amish woman, "The policeman said there was something wrong with the emergency brake."

4. LOL-that's cute, but with the little I know about horses
I think that might serve not as a brake but rather a launching or accelerating mechanism!

15. Does your insensitivity know no bounds?
Making fun of the Amish? Do you walk up to crippled people and start dancing, too?

24. That's it, I'm leaving DU
I'm sure the community will NOT be able to go on, since it all hinges on me. The universe revolves around me, I know it's true, because my therapist says I'm special and unique.
