Flies

A stockman from North Queensland attends a social function where Prime
Minister Julia is speechifying. Clearly the stockman was not paying much
attention, yackking with those closest and even quite far away. Julia
endeavoured to attract his interest with slower, single syllable words.
As she was doing that, she kept swatting at some flies that were buzzing
around her head. The stockman says, "Yer havin' some problem with them
circle flies?"

Julia stopped talking and said, "Well, yes, if that's what they're called,
but I've never heard of circle flies."

"Well ma'am," the stockman replies, "Circle flies hang around these parts a
lot. They're called circle flies because they're almost always found
circling around the back end of a horse."

"Oh," Julia replies and resumes rambling. But, a moment later she stops
and bluntly asks, "Are you calling me a horse's a*se?"

"No, ma'am," the stockman replies, "I have too much respect for the citizens
of this country to call their Prime Minister a horse's arse."

"Thank you for that respectful explanation," Julia responds and resumes
rambling once more.
And the stockman adds slowly ...

"Hard to fool them flies, though."
