TROLLING
THERE WERE TWO WHITE MEN IN A SPEED BOAT AND THEY WERE
PULLING A NEGRO SKIER. PRESIDENT JOHNSON WAS FLYING
OVERHEAD IN A HELICOPTER AND HE SAW THIS GOING ON. HE FLEW
DOWN NEAR TO THEM AND YELLED, "I'M VERY PROUD THAT YOU
ARE A FELLOW AMERICAN OF MINE. I ONLY WISH THAT ALL
AMERICANS WOULD FOLLOW YOUR EXAMPLE AND TREAT THEIR NEGRO
BROTHERS IN SUCH A WAY." THE TWO WHITE GUYS WERE KIND OF
SURPRISED AND ONE SAID TO THE OTHER, "THAT WAS VERY NICE
BUT HE DOESN'T KNOW A DAMNED THING ABOUT ALLIGATOR
TROLLING."
