Worst Joke Ever…….?
Q: What do Christmas and a cat on the beach have in common?
A: Sandy Claws.
Do you know one that’s worse?
"...a phrase used by coastal Mainers. Of obscure origin and having nothing to do with the flesh of a pig, it denotes appreciation of anything from a profitable haul while fishing to a jug of cider, to a good looking pan of biscuits." --taken from "How to Talk Yankee", authors Gerald E. Lewis and Tim Sample, The Thorndike Press, copyright 1979

Ayup! And, its from Maine (I think). I vaguely remember it, maybe, from a "Bert and I" recording? Part of one of their "can't get they-ah from he-yah" routines, maybe. Plenty bad, and its been years, but the memory remains:
Maine guy giving directions to a visiting New Yorker: You drive up this road 'bout a mile 'til you come to a round bahn.
New Yorker: A round barn?
Maine Guy: Ayup. That's where the cat went crazy.
New Yorker: ???
Maine Guy: Yup. Couldn't find a cornah to shit in.
(Sorry, I'm terrible at accents.)
