There were two old brothers from Texas, one was a hairlip and the other a cripple. Well after years of struggling to scrape out a living on their ranch they struck oil and became rich overnight and moved to a nice house in town. The brothers decided to take a trip to Europe to see the sights. When they returned their neighbor was in the back yard trimming the hedge when he saw the hairlip and called out to him. " So I see you and your Brother Bill made it back from Europe how was your trip?". "Oh it was just wonderfull! We went to London England they had the biggest dang clock there you ever did see, tourist go up to the top and you could see for miles!" "Well that's the Big Ben, How about Brother Bill did he go up in Big Ben?" "Oh no, no, Brother Bill, he's...he's a cripple you know" " But then we went to Paris France. It was wonderfull! They had the biggest dang oil well there you ever did see, tourist go up to the top, you can see for miles!" "Well, that's the Eifel tower. How about your brother Bill did he get to the top of the Eifle tower?" "Oh no, no, Brother Bill he's...he's a cripple you know. But Then we went to Pisa Italy. They had the biggest dang chit house there you ever did see, It was leaning over so far you swear it was gona fall. Tourist go to the top you can see for miles!" "Well that's the leaning tower of Pisa. How about your brother Bill did he enjoy the leaning tower of Pisa?." "Oh no, no, Brother Bill, he's...he's a cripple you know. But there was one thing Brother Bill got to see. Yep whilst we were at the Vatican the Pope was going by in this here bubble car and he sees Brother Bill standing there on his crutches. Well he makes them stop the bubble car and he gets out and walks right up to Brother Bill and taps him on his left shoulder and his left crutch go's a flying out that'away.
