Speaking German In Texas

In Texas there is a town called New Braunfels, where there is a large German-speaking population.


One day, a local rancher driving down a country road noticed a man using his hand to drink water from the rancher's stock pond. The rancher rolled down the window and shouted: "Sehr angenehm! Trink das Wasser nicht. Die kuehe habendarein geschissen." Which means: "Glad to meet you! Don't drink the water. The cows have shit in it."


The man shouted back: "I'm from Indiana and just down here campaigning for Santorum. I can't understand you. Please speak in English."


The rancher replied: "Use both hands."
