Once upon a time there was this farmer, who was raising his 3 daughters. Naturally, he was concerned about their well being and always did his best to watch out for them. As they entered their late teens, the girls began dating. On one particular evening all three girls were going out on a date. This was the first time this had occurred. As was custom, the farmer would greet the young suitor at the door, holding a bat, not to menace or threaten but simply to ensure the young men knew who was the boss...
The doorbell rang and the first of the boys arrived. Father answered the door and the lad said, "Hi, my name's Joe, I'm here for Flo. We're going to the show, is she ready to go?" The father looked him over and sent the kids on their way.
The next lad arrived and said, "My name's Eddie, I'm here for Betty, we're gonna get some spaghetti, is she ready?" Father felt this one was okay too, so off the two kids went.
The final young man arrived and the farmer opened the door. The boy started off, "Hi, my name's Chuck --" and Whack!, the farmer hit him.
