An old farmer is outside for a walk around his land when he
sees a sign on his neighbor's lawn "Horse for Sale". Curious,
he decides to have a look-see. As he approaches his
neighbor's stable, he sees his old Italian friend brushing down
a fine-looking stallion.

"Hello friend, I saw your sign out there and came over to see
your horse for sale." Now, the Italian farmer speaks very poor
English, but manages to answer well enough. "Yep, yep, disa
is da horse for-a sale."

"This horse here?" quizzes the old farmer, "Why he's a fine
horse! Why-ever would you sell him?"

"Well," sighs the Italian farmer, "He no looka so good
anymore."

The old farmer, convinced that his neighbor has lost his mind,
makes the sale and leads the horse across his field over to the
stable. As he taps the horse gently on the back to coax him
into the stable, he watches as the horse misses the door
completely and smacks head first into the wall. "That ol' cheat
sold me a near blind horse!" growls the old farmer. He then

proceeds to storm over across the field, reigns in hand, to give
his neighbor a piece of his mind. "You sold me a near blind
horse you ol' cheat and you didn't even tell me!" he screams.

"Eh! I tolla you!" cries the Italian farmer, "I say, 'he no looka
so good anymore!' "
