The only cow in a small town in southern Minnesota stopped giving milk.

The farmers did some research and found that they could buy a cow from
Illinois for 200 dollars, or one from Nebraska for 100 dollars.

Being frugal, they bought the cow from Nebraska. The cow was wonderful.
It produced lots of milk all the time, and the people were amazed and
very happy.

They decided to acquire a bull to mate with the cow and produce more
cows like it. Then they would never have to worry about the milk supply
again.

They bought a bull and put it in the pasture with their beloved cow.
However, whenever the bull came close to the cow, the cow would move
away.

No matter what approach the bull tried, the cow would move away from the
bull and he could not succeed in his quest.

The people were very upset and decided to ask a local engineer, who was
very wise, what to do.

They told the engineer what was happening. "Whenever the bull
approaches our cow, she moves away. If he approaches from the back, she
moves forward. When he approaches her from the front, she backs off. An
approach from the side and she just walks away to the other side."

The engineer thought about this for a minute and asked, "Did you buy
this cow from Nebraska?"

The people were dumbfounded, since they had never mentioned where they
had gotten the cow.

"You are truly a wise engineer," they said. "How did you know we got the
cow from Nebraska?"

The engineer answered sadly, "My wife is from Nebraska."

LOL...Makes perfect sense.
