Can’t Resist

Jay Hovdey tells jokes:
A man’s car stalls on a country road. When he gets out to fix it, a horse in the nearby field comes alongside the fence and leans over.
“Your trouble is probably in the carburetor,” says the horse.
Startled, the man jumps back and runs down the road until he meets a farmer, and excitedly tells him the story of the talking horse.
“Was it a large white horse with a black mark over the right eye?” asks the farmer.
“Yes, yes, that’s the one!” the man replies.
“Oh, I wouldn’t listen to him,” says the farmer. “He doesn’t know anything about cars.”
There’s more…. (Daily Racing Form)
