A farmer in Culpepper, VA went to the local branch of Wachovia Bank  
to borrow money for a new bull. The loan was made and Banker Bill,
who lent the money, came by a week later to see how the bull was
doing. The farmer complained that the bull just ate grass and
wouldn't even look at a cow. Banker Bill suggested that he have a
veterinarian take a look at the bull.

Next week Banker Bill returned to see if the vet had helped.

The farmer looked very pleased. "That bull has serviced all of my
cows! He even broke through the fence, and serviced all my
neighbor's cows! He's been servicing just about everything in sight.
He's like a machine!"

"Wow," said Banker Bill, "What did the vet do to that bull?"

"Just gave him some pills," replied the farmer.

"What kind of pills?" asked Banker Bill.

"I don't know, but they kind of taste like peppermint."
