A cowboy rides in to town, ties off his horse, and leans down to dip his finger in a fresh pile of horseshit. He smears the horseshit on his lips and heads in to the saloon.

Another cowboy asks "Dry lips?'"

The first says "Yup".

The second asks "does that help?"

The first responds "nope, but it keeps me from licking them."
