A man and and a woman from Alabama don't want any more children
because they already have 11. So the husband goes to a doctor in Ohio.
The doctor asks, "What state are you from?

The man say,s "Alabama." The doctor tells him to go home, put a lit
cherry bomb in an empty soda can, hold it in his hand, and count to
10. The husband isn't so sure of this, so he goes to another doctor,
this time in California.

When that doctor finds out that the husband is from Alabama, he tells
him the exact same thing that the doctor in Ohio told him. The husband
figures that the doctors must be right.

So he goes home, puts a lit cherry bomb in a soda can, and starts to
count. ''1...2...3...4...5...'' The husband takes the soda can and
puts it between his legs to continue counting on his fingers on his
right hand. ''6...7...8...9...''
