#2 Found somewhere on the internet: While speaking to a group of farmers, Truman repeatedly used the word "manure." His wife, Bess, was in the audience with one of her friends who whispered to her, "Bess, can't you get Harry to say 'fertilizer'?"

Bess replied, "It took me 30 years to get him to say 'manure.'"
