A rancher from Texas gets pulled over by a New Mexico State Trooper for speeding. The trooper started to lecture the him about his speeding and in general to throw his weight around to try to make the Texan feel uncomfortable.
Finally, the trooper got around to writing out the ticket. As he was doing that, he kept swatting at some flies that were buzzing around his head.
The rancher sez, "Y'all havin' some problem with them circle flies?"
The trooper stopped writing the ticket and said, "Well yeah, if that's what they're called. But I never heard of no circle flies."
"Well, sir," the rancher replies, "circle flies hang around farms & barns. They're called circle flies because they're almost always found circling around the back end of a horse."
The trooper says, "Oh," and goes back to writing the ticket. But, a moment later he stops and says, "Are you calling me a horse's ass?"
"No, sir," the rancher replies, "I have too much respect for law enforcement to call y'all a horse's ass."
"That's a good thing," the trooper says and goes back to writing the ticket.
After a long pause, the rancher, in his best Southern drawl says, "Hard to fool them flies though."
