A young farm couple, Homer and Darlene, got married and just couldnt seem to get enough lovin.

In the morning, before Homer left the house for the fields, they made love. When Homer came back from the fields, they made love. And again at bedtime, they made love.

The problem was their after - nooner -- it took Homer a half hour to travel home and another half hour to return to the fields and he just wasnt getting enough work done.

Finally Homer asked the town doctor what to do. "Homer, said the doctor, "just take your rifle out to the field with you and when youre in the mood, fire off a shot into the air. That will be Darlenes signal to come out to you. Then you wont lose any field time.

They tried Docs advice and it worked well for a while. But then Homer went back to the doctors office.

"Whats wrong?" asked the Doc. "Didnt my idea work?

"Oh, it worked real well," said Homer. "Whenever I was in the mood, I fired off a shot like you said and Darlened come runnin. Wed find a secluded place, make love, and then shed go back home again."

"Good, Homer. So whats the problem?" asked the Doc.

"I aint seen her since huntin season started!"
