A man was driving along a country-side road and his truck stalled and drove into a ditch. There happened to be a farmer who lived near by and he asked if his horse could pull his truck out.
The old farmer hitched up the horse, Buddy, and yelled out, "Pull Silver, Pull!!!" The horse did nothing. Then he yelled out again, "Pull Bullet, pull!!" The horse did nothing. Then he yelled for the final time, "Pull Buddy, pull!!" And the horse pulled the truck out of the ditch. The man thanked the farmer and wondered.
Then he asked, "Why did you call out 2 other names before his?" and the farmer replied, "Well, Buddy is blind and if he knew that he was the only horse there, he wouldn't have budged.":wink:
