Buddy

An out-of-towner drove his car into a ditch in a desolated area.

.

Luckily, a local farmer came to help with his big strong horse named Buddy.

.

He hitched Buddy up to the car and yelled, "Pull, Nellie, pull."

.

Buddy didn't move.

.

Then the farmer hollered, "Pull, Buster, pull."

.

Buddy didn't respond.

.

Once more the farmer commanded, "Pull, Jennie, pull."

.

Nothing.

.

Then the farmer nonchalantly said, "Pull, Buddy, pull."

.

And the horse easily dragged the car out of the ditch.

.

The motorist was most appreciative and very curious.

.

He asked the farmer why he called his horse by the wrong name three times.

.

The farmer said, "Oh, Buddy is blind, and if he thought he was the only one pulling, he wouldn't even try!"
