Little Eddie attended a horse auction with his father.

He watched as His father moved from horse to horse,

running his hands up and down the horse's legs, rump,

and chest.

After a few minutes, Eddie asked, "Dad, why are you

doing that?"

His father replied, "Because when I'm buying horses, I

have to make sure that they are healthy and in good

shape before I buy."

Eddie, looking worried, said: "Dad, I think the UPS guy

wants to buy Mom."
