As a born child of the South I found this amusing...

A lawyer from the Big City comes to Mississippi to hunt ducks. One day he shoots a duck and it falls in a farmer's field. He figures no one will ever see, so he ignores the "No Trespassing" sign and sneaks over the fence to get the duck. But before he can collect it an old farmer rides up on his mule and asks him what he thinks he's doing. He says he's retrieving his duck.

"Well, now," says the farmer. "This is my land and that sign plainly says you may not trespass. I think that is MY duck!"

"Listen, you stupid, ugly, inbred hick" says the lawyer, "I'm a rich and famous trial lawyer from the Big City and if you don't let me have that duck I'll sue you and wind up owning everything you have!"

"Whoa, now young feller," says the farmer. "We don't go bothering the courts down here over something small like that. We settle it with the Mississippi three kick rule."

"What's that?" asks the lawyer.

"Well, we take turns kicking each other three times. The man what don't give up, wins."

The lawyer thinks the old guy looks pretty feeble and figures he can easily take him. "OK, old timer. You're on. Who gets the first three kicks?"

"I do," says the farmer "'cuz it's my land."

He gets down from his mule and kicks the lawyer right in the...uh...right there. The lawyer folds up on the ground and with his second kick the farmer removes the lawyer's nose and upper lip. The third kick ruins his right kidney. The lawyer struggles to his feet, barely able to move.

"You ready for my turn, you old cretin?" he croaks.

"Oh, no need, " says the farmer. "I give up. You can have the duck."

Ran across this one.  A bit in the gray zone... so to speak, but really funny.

Camping season in Michigan is coming soon and so are the mosquitos. 

Off spray, keeps mosquitos off! Not. 😂

I’ll stick to Thermacell.

This is a little off subject, but I have certainly felt this way when camping.  The pic is from the bike park at Virginia Key in Miami.

We've found Florida mosquitoes to be small , slower, and annoying, but nothing like the larger and faster Minnesota state bird... (I'm from Minnesota. )

The MN State Bird must have migrated to a campground in Nebraska. One morning while at the dump station I was attacked by the mosquitoes, there were many, they were big, bad, fast, and hungry.  ☹️

On a more pleasant topic I guess, we were at a local State Park the morning after Nebraska beat Miami in a football game. Someone shot a cannon at 7:00AM at the campground, still celebrating. 🧨

We felt out of place with a Black TV, all the Nebraska fans had Red TVs. The football game was close by, made reservations months ahead of that date and never understood why the campground was full until the day of the football game. 🙂

So now I know why when people go deer hunting they bring a rifle with a scope.

...and a handgun, to make their way to the scoped long-gun should they become separated.

Wife and I watched a movie on Prime that she thought was funny and I thought was a serious documentary. "The Long Long Trailer" follows a newlywed couple through their experience with getting and using a big travel trailer. Definitely worth a watch.

OMG, we watch "The Long, Long Trailer" several times a year - always while camping, though!  It cracks us up - we do not, however, collect rocks like Lucy does! HA!
