A man stalled his car on the road and found his starter unable to turn the motor over. A lady came along with her car, and he hailed her, asking her to give him a push. He said to her, 'My car has an automatic transmission, so you will have to get up to 35 miles an hour'. He sat there waiting for her to push him with her car and nothing happened. He looked around and there she was coming at him at a speed of 35 miles an hour.

It's the front ones that won't turn.'

Asked the patient. 'Nope' was the answer. The patient said 'You'd just ought to try it sometime, it beats farming all to pieces.'

A man had a flat tire next to a mental institution. While he was putting on the spare, a patient watched him. He could not find the nuts to hold the wheel on the hub. He must have mis-laid them, and didn't know what he was going to do. The patient said: 'I'll tell you what to do, take one off each of the other wheels, that will get you to a service station where you can get some more'. The man said 'That's a very good idea, especially good for a mental patient.' The patient said 'Just remember that I'm in here because I'm crazy, not dumb.'
