What do you think of this (kinda long) joke?

[Op2]

THE WELSH COW

The only cow in a small town in Ireland stopped giving milk. Then the town folk found they could buy a cow in Wales quite cheaply. So, they brought the cow over from Wales. It was absolutely wonderful. It produced lots of milk every day and everyone was happy. They bought a bull to mate with the cow to get more cows, so they'd never have to worry about their milk supply again.

They put the bull in the pasture with the cow but whenever the bull tried to mount the cow, the cow would move away. No matter what approach the bull tried, the cow would move away from the bull, and he was never able to do the deed.

The people were very upset and decided to go to the Vet, who was very wise, tell him what was happening and ask his advice. "Whenever the bull tries to mount our cow, she moves away. If he approaches from the back, she moves forward. When he approaches her from the front, she backs off. If he attempts it from the one side, she walks away to the other side."

The Vet rubbed his chin thoughtfully and pondered this before asking, "Did you by chance buy this cow in Wales?" The people were dumbfounded, since no one had ever mentioned that they had brought the cow over from Wales. "You are truly a wise Vet," they said. "How did you know we got the cow from Wales?" The Vet replied with a distant look in his eye: "My wife's from Wales."

Good joke.

And this, ladies and gentlemen, is your Portland Cement Crack of the Week.

The NC Board of Elections Chair told that joke at a conference and had to resign in the resulting hubbub. Although he shouldn't have told it in public at a conference, I think an apology should have sufficed. And I don't think the joke is offensive at all. I found it funny. But I wouldn't tell it from a podium at a conference with a bunch of state election officials.

You don’t tell jokes like this while you’re on the clock. Anyone who doesn’t understand this is just too stupid to have that job anyway.

yeah...have to hold a board of elections chair to a higher standard. Its one thing to offend a co-worker, quite another to offend a huge block of voters.

My rule of thumb: No sex insinuations, no politics and no religion at work; under any circumstances.

Dammmmmnnnnnnn... i miss the good ole days where that was standard fare. Thankfully, I'm so over the Fing hill it no longer matters. I'd hate being young today with all the silly rules and pc. and disease. and tears plus accusations after the fact. blech. [newfound respect for millenials... for just showing up to this horrific mess]

F'em if they can't take a joke.
