As a young boy, Joe was completely obsessed with tractors. He had
pictures of tractors all over his bedroom walls; he had tractor toys,
tractor T-shirts, and duvet cover, the whole works. He ate, drank and
slept tractors.
On his 17th birthday he was thrilled to get an invitation to go to a
tractor factory nearby and test-drive a brand new tractor. His
excitement was incredible as he told his family and friends. The great
day came and he went to the factory for the test-drive.
Unfortunately something went terribly wrong with the tractor when Joe
was driving it and it flipped over, trapping and breaking Joe's leg and
fracturing his skull. He was so upset and tried to sue the tractor
company for negligence. But the company would have none of it and told
him there was no liability and he could get lost!
You can imagine he was rather fed up with tractors after this and vowed to shed them from his life completely and forever.
Many years later, Joe went into a bar for a drink. Inside, the cigarette
and cigar smoke was terrible but through it he saw a beautiful girl
seated at the bar on her own. Tears were streaming down her face. Joe
asked her what was wrong and she said that the smoke was making her eyes
sting and stream with tears.
With that, Joe looked around and then took a huge breath, sucking in all
the smoke. He then walked to the far window and blew all the smoke out
again.
He goes back into the bar where the air is now clear and sweet and sits down Next to the girl.
"That was amazing!" she said, "How did you do that"?
"It was easy", said Joe, "I'm an extractor fan".
