A farmer buys several sheep, hoping to breed them for wool. After
several weeks, he notices that none of the sheep are getting pregnant
and phones a vet for help. The vet tells him that he should try
artificial insemination.

The farmer doesn't have the slightest idea what this means but, not
wanting to display his ignorance, only asks the vet how he will know
when the sheep are pregnant. The vet tells him that they will stop
standing around and instead will lie down and wallow in grass when they
are pregnant The man hangs up and gives it some thought. He comes to the
conclusion that artificial insemination means he has to impregnate the
sheep himself.

So, he loads the sheep into his Land Rover, drives them out into the
woods, has sex with them all, brings them back, and goes to bed.

Next morning, he wakes and looks out at the sheep. Seeing that they are
all still standing around, he deduces that the first try didn't take,
and loads them in the Land Rover again. He drives them out to the woods,
bangs each sheep twice for good measure, brings them back, and goes to
bed exhausted.

Next morning, he wakes to find the sheep still just standing round. Try
again.he tells himself, and proceeds to load them up, and drive them out
to the woods. He spends all day banging the sheep and upon returning
home, falls listlessly into bed.

The next morning, he cannot even raise himself from the bed to look out
of the window. He asks his wife to look, and to tell him if the sheep
are lying in the grass.

No, she says, they're all in the Land Rover, and one of them is beeping
the horn .
