A young journalism graduate from Arkansas had gone to work for the New York Times.  His first assignment was to write a brief human interest story.

   

An idea came to him and he returned to one of the most remote areas  he  knew of in his home state of Arkansas.  Deep in the woods, he came   upon a farmers house and decided this would be a good place to start.

   

He introduced himself to the back country farmer and explained why he was there.  The farmer  (Billy Jeff)  agreed to answer his questions.

The reporter asked Billy Jeff what event in his life had made him the happiest?

   

Billy Jeff replied,  "One time a neighbor lost one of his sheep.  We all formed a posse and found it.  After we all screwed it we took it back to the farmer that lost it."

"I can't print that,"  said the reporter,  "Is there another event that made you really happy?"

   

Billy Jeff thought for a minute and said,  "Yep.  One time the daughter of another local farmer got lost.  She was a good-lookin' young girl We all formed posse and found her.  After all of us screwed her, we took her back to her daddy."

Again the reporter knew he couldn't print the story and decided to take a  different tack.  He asked the farmer,  "Is there any event in your   life that has made you really sad?"

   

Billy Jeff hung his head and replied,  "Well, I got lost once."
