Sunday Funnies – Talking Dog For Sale
Posted on Sunday, April 10th, 2011
My Gram saved the Sunday Funny Papers for my daughter Nicole and me every week – many, many years ago. I think it gave us both an appreciation of the fine art of mixing humor with work. (It could also explain a lot… ) I’ll try to pass on my Gram’s gift here, sort of as a reminder to laugh every day. Thanks, Gram. Let’s see who’s got a chuckle for us today…
Thanks to my friend Stephanie Rainbow at InfiniteInnerPower.com for this morning’s chuckle… well more like spit-coffee-out-my-nose guffaw. Be sure to click on InfiniteInnerPower.com and say thanks to Stephanie. Here ya go:
A guy is driving around the back woods of Montana and he sees a sign in front of a broken-down shanty-style house: ‘Talking Dog For Sale”. He rings the doorbell, and the owner appears and tells him the dog is in the backyard.
The guy goes round the back and sees a nice-looking Labrador retriever sitting there.
‘You talk?‘ he asks.
‘Yep,’ the Lab replies.
After the guy recovers from the shock of hearing a dog talk, he says ‘So, what’s your story?’
The Lab looks up and tells his story:
‘Well, I discovered that I could talk when I was pretty young…..I wanted to help the government, so I told the CIA.
‘In no time at all they had me jetting from country to country, sitting in rooms with spies and world leaders, because no one had figured a dog would be eavesdropping.’
‘I was one of their most valuable spies for eight years running… But the jetting-around really tired me out, and I knew I wasn’t getting any younger, so I decided to settle down. I signed up for a job at the airport to do some undercover security, wandering near suspicious characters and listening in. I uncovered some incredible dealings, and was awarded a batch of medals. I got married, had 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.
‘Ten dollars,’ the owner says.
‘Ten dollars? This dog is amazing! Why on earth are you selling him so cheap?’ the guy says.
The owner replied, ‘Because he’s a liar. He never did any of that stuff.”
