Luther and Leroy were two East Texas Good Ol' Boys. Luther was always trying to better himself, and one day somebody told him he might want to go to college, and he decided to check that out. He didn't like traveling alone, so he asked Leroy to go with him down to East Texas Normal School and check out the whole college thing.
When they got there, Luther told Leroy to stay with the mules while he went on into the college. He wandered into one building and walked down the halls until he found a room with a man sitting at a desk.
The man said "Can I help you?"
Luther said. "Yup. I want to know about college."
"What do you need to know?" asked the man behind the desk.
"What kind of thing do you all do here?" says Luther.
"We teach things."
"What kind of things?"
"Well," says the man behind the desk, "I'm a Professor of Logical Deduction, so I teach that."
Luther gets that expression on his face he usually gets when he can't figure something out. "Whut's Logical Deduction?"
"It's a way of looking at the world, using available information, and then through a process of deduction, coming to know other things."
That expression doesn't leave Luther's face and all he can do is say "Say whut?"
"Perhaps I can demonstrate it to you." offers the Professor. "How did you get here today?"
Luther brightens up a bit and says "Me and Leroy rode the mules down from Bumtizzle."
"Well then," says the professor, "Using that information, I can logically deduce that you are a farmer, am I correct?"
"Yup, sho 'nuff." Got 60 acres of bottom land."
"Ah!" says the Professor, "With that bit of information I can logically deduce that you have a family. Am I correct?"
"Well, I swan," says Luther, "I sure do, got a wife and three younguns."
"And with that piece of information, I can logically deduce that you are a heterosexual."
Luther gets all excited with this new idea of Logical Deduction and rushes out to Leroy standing by the mules.
"Leroy," he says "I am sure fire going to thisseer college and I'm gonna be studying up on Logical Deduction!"
Leroy says "Logical Deduction, whut in heckfahr is Logical Deduction?"
"Lemme demonstrate it to you." says Luther. "Do you own any mules?"
"Aw Luther, you know I have to borrow your mules every time I need to plow my field or pull a stump"
Well then," says Luther, "you're gay."
