After their 11th child, an Alabama couple decided that was enough, as they could not afford a larger bed.
So the husband went to see the veterinarian and told him that he and his cousin didn't want to have any more children.....
The doctor told him that there was a procedure called a vasectomy that could fix the problem but that it was expensive....
'A less costly alternative,' said the doctor, 'is to go home, get a large cherry bomb, (fireworks are legal in Alabama ) light it,
put it in a beer can (COORS), then hold the can up to your ear and count to 10.'
The Alabamian said to the doctor,
' I may not be the smartest tool in the shed doc,
but I don't see how puttin a cherry bomb in a beer can next to my ear is goin to hep me.'
'Trust me just try it' said the vet.
So the man went home, lit a big cherry bomb and put it in a beer can.
He held the can up to his ear and began to count!
'1'
'2'
'3'
'4'
'5'
At which point he paused, placed the beer can between his legs and continued counting on his other hand.
This procedure also works in Tennessee, Kentucky, Louisiana, Arkansas, Mississippi, parts of Georgia,
Missouri, West Virginia, and of course all of Washington DC .
