A story with a moral. So read on folks, and pay heed...
An old farmer in Kansas had owned a large farm, with a nice pond in the back 40 acres. It was fixed up nice: picnic tables, horseshoe courts and some apple and peach trees.
One evening the old farmer decided to go down to the pond as he hadn't been there for a while and look it over. He grabbed a five gallon bucket to bring back some fruit.
Upon nearing the pond, he heard voices shouting and laughing with glee. As he came closer he saw it was a bunch of young women skinny-dipping in his pond. He made some noise so the women would be aware of his presence. When they heard the farmer, all the young ladies retreated to the deep end of the pond. One of the women shouted to him, "We're not coming out until you leave!"
The old man frowned. "I didn't come down here to watch you ladies swim naked, or make you get out of the pond." Holding the bucket up he said, "I'm just here to feed the alligator."
Old age and cunning will triumph over youth and enthusiasm every time!
