A man and his wife, moved back home to West Virginia, from Ohio. The husband had a wooden leg, and to insure it back in Ohio cost them $2,000. Per year!

When they arrived in West Virginia, they went to an Insurance agency to see how much it would cost to insure his wooden leg. The agent looked it up on the computer and said: '$39.'

The husband was shocked and asked why it was so cheap here in West Virginia to insure it because it cost him $2,000 in Ohio!

The insurance agent turned his computer screen to the couple and said, 'Well, here it is on the screen, it says: Any wooden structure, with a sprinkler system above it, is $39..... You just have to know how to describe it!'

(Those HILLBILLIES know how "to git 'er done"; don't they?)
