Fun joke:

A man in the American wild west of the 1870's orders a bride from New York. She arrives and they quickly marry without much time to get to know each other. As they ride off together from the church in a small horse drawn wagon, the horse stumbles and the man quietly says, "strike one." The woman thought it was odd but didn't comment. The horse stumbles a second time and the man then says, "strike two." Again, the new wife remains silent. After the horse stumbles a third time, the man says, "strike three," and then jumps out of the wagon and shoots the horse in the head. The new wife is horrified. She screams, "You monster!! Why would you do something so barbaric?" To which, the husband looks her dead in the eye and quietly says, "strike one."
