BRANDED
A certain family had become fed up with the noise and traffic of the city and decided to move to the country – to try life in the wide open spaces. Intending to raise cattle, they bought a western ranch. Some friends came to visit a month later and asked them what they had named the ranch. The father said, “Well, I wanted to call it the Flying-W and my wife wanted to call it the Suzy-Q, but one of our sons liked the Bar-J and the other preferred the Lazy-Y. So we compromised and called it the Flying-W, Suzy-Q, Bar-J, Lazy-Y Ranch.” Their friend asked, “Well, where are your cattle?” The man replied, “None of them survived the branding!”
