A temporary break as I'm downloading transferred pictures from my ancient desktop -- I found this in a late 2002 email (still saved, yes, me bad) from Mr. Don:
This guy sees a sign in front of a house: "Talking Dog for Sale." He rings the bell and the owner tells him the dog is in the back yard.
The guy goes into the back yard and sees a mutt sitting there. "You talk?" he asks.
"Yep," the mutt replies.
"So, what's your story?"
The mutt looks up and says "Well, I discovered my gift pretty young and I wanted to help the government, so I told the CIA about my gift, and in no time they had me jetting from country to country, sitting in rooms with spies and world lders, because no one figured a dog would be eavesdropping. I was one their most valuable spies eight years running. I couldn't tell you how many wars I helped prevent.
But, the jetting around really tired me out, and I knew I wasn't getting aany ounger and I wanted to settle down. So I signed up for a job at the airport to do some undercover security work, mostly wandering near
suspicious characters and listening in. I uncovered some incredible dealings there and was awarded a batch of medals. Had a wife, a mess of puppies, and now I'm just retired."
The guy is amazed. He goes back in and asks the owner what he wants for the dog. The owner says "Ten dollars."
The guy says he'll buy him but asks the owner, "This dog is amazing. Why on earth are you selling him and why so cheap?"
The owner replies, "He's such a liar. He didn't do any of that stuff."
