A Water Department representative stopped at a ranch and talked with an old rancher. He told the rancher, "I need to inspect your ranch for your water allocation."
The old rancher said, "Okay but don't go in that field over there."
The Water representative said, "Mister, I have the authority of the Federal Government with me. See this card? This card means I am allowed to go wherever I wish on any agricultural land. No questions asked or answered. Have I made myself clear? Do you understand?"
The old rancher nodded politely and went about his chores.
Later, the old rancher heard a loud scream and saw the Water Rep running for the fence and close behind was the rancher's bull. The bull was gaining on him with every step.
The Rep was clearly terrified, so the old rancher immediately threw down his tools, ran to the fence and shouted out ............
"YOUR CARD! YOUR CARD! SHOW him your card!"

If the water rep ever makes it back to the office, he's gonna have a story to tell that's REALLY filled with a lotta bull! ;-) ~JIBS~
