Two rural Texans were walking along the road. After a period of time had elapsed they came upon an old hound dog licking himself in the way dogs will do. The two Texans watched the dog for a while and then one said to the other, " Don't you wish you could do that?" to which the other Texan replied, " Yeah, but I'm afraid he'd bite me".
A young Texan boy ran away with his girlfriend and got married. The next day his father saw him slowly walking home with his head down and obviously disappointed. The father scolded his young son saying," Son, you just got married and here you are coming back home after leaving your new bride. This is totally unacceptable". " But Pa" the boy exclaimed, "you don't understand." The father said, " No, son, you took sacred vows and there is no reason for you to leave your new bride." But the boy persisted," But pa, you don't understand ". " Okay, son, what don't I understand ?' " Pa, she was a virgin ." The father stopped and thought for a moment and said, " Son, you did the right thing ". " If she ain't good enough for her own kin, she ain't good enough for us".
