Farm life wasn't always serious. My father had nicknames, bon-mots, and trick items for every occasion . No visitor was safe from plastic ice cubes with a bug encased inside, a whoopee cushion, or an electric corncob (for cold nights in the outhouse). Farming was such an unpredictable gamble, that you had to laugh to survive.
