Dragnet, a very discerning gentleman who lives a bit southwest, sent this one
about a Montana rancher and a US Government agent...

The Montana Department of Employment, Division of Labor Standards claimed
a small rancher was not paying proper wages to his help and sent an agent out
to investigate him.

Government Agent: "I need a list of your employees and how much you pay them."

Rancher: "Well, there's my hired hand who’s been with me for 3 years. I pay him
$200 a week plus free room and board. Then there's the mentally challenged guy.
He works at least 18 hours every day and does about 90% of all the work around
here. He makes about $10 per week, pays his own room and board. I buy him a
bottle of bourbon every Saturday night, so he can cope with life. He also sleeps
with my wife occasionally."

Government Agent: "That's the guy I want to talk to - the one that's mentally
challenged."

Rancher: "That would be me."
