A funny joke…Man’s Best Friend

A dog is truly a man’s best friend.

If you
don’t believe it, just try this experiment.

Put your dog and your wife in the trunk of the car
for an hour.

When you open the trunk, who is really
happy to see you!?


Pet Diaries

THE CAT’S DIARY:

Day 983 of my captivity. My captors continue to taunt me with bizarre little dangling objects and some sort of powerful mind-altering drug that they have securely place into a small clothed thing they refer to as a “toy.” But I am strong and will resist to the bitter end if necessary, even though its deadly aroma truly drives me mad. The captors also dine lavishly on fresh meat while the other inmates and I are fed hash or some sort of dry nuggets. Although I make my contempt for the rations they feed me perfectly clear, I nevertheless must eat something in order to keep up my strength.

The only thing that keeps me going is my dream of escape. In an attempt to disgust them, I once again vomit a hair ball on their precious white living room carpet. Today, I also decapitated a mouse and dropped its he adless body at their feet. I had hoped this would strike fear in their hearts since it clearly demonstrates my superior capabilities. However, they merely made condescending comments about what a “good little hunter” I was.

Bastards! There was some sort of assembly of their accomplices tonight. I was placed in solitary confinement for the duration of the event. However, I could hear the noises and smell the food. I overheard that my untimely confinement was due to the power of “allergies.” I must learn what this means and how to use it to my advantage when I finally break out of this 2-legged run prison.

Today I was almost successful in an attempt to assassinate one of my tormentors by weaving around her feet as she tried to walk by. I must try this again tomorrow, but this time at the top of the stairs. If that fails again, I will be forced to try another measure of attack by curling up around her breathing holes when she lays down on her comfortable sleeping platform at darkness. My success a few moons ago was unfortunately cut short due to my captor rising suddenly due to the dog voicing his concerns over a fellow feline who roams freely outside the prison walls and digs in our trash containers. I must find a way to silence the dog during the next darkness time.

I am convinced that the other prisoners here are flunkies and snitches. The dog receives special privileges; he is regularly released and seems to be more than willing to return. He is obviously retarded. The bird must be an informant. I observe him communicating with the guards regularly. I am certain that he reports my every move to them. My captors have arranged protective custody for him in an elevated cell so he is safe, but only for now.


Yet another brilliant piece of comedy

February 27, 2008

Short but sweet. The guy doing the weather on the radio was talking about today’s forecast (flurries and teens for a high). He then goes on to talk about tonite saying it will get into the single digits overnight with a 100% chance of darkness. Hilarious. That’s comedy.


Quarter Pickle: No More, No Less

February 22, 2008

Sometimes its the little things that get us through boring times, like work. So last night at work I was working with the guys in grocery and we had gotten in HUGE jars of HUGE pickles. Like the ones you would pay a dollar for at the Renaissance Festival. Under further investigation it appeared the pickle jar contained 20 pickles -give or take a runt pickle- but something strange appeared on your “Daily Values” chart. The jar stated that there were 80 servings in one jar. 80 servings and 20 pickles. In parenthesis it said, “One serving equals approximately 1/4 pickle”. That’s comedy.

So here is the situation. You are allowed to take a pickle out of the jar, but must precisely bite off 1/4 of it. 3/4 of it if you bite the large end and spit it back into the jar and eat the 1/4. The average person would also keep working on the same pickle 4 times. (Actually an average person would just eat the whole pickle-but bare with me) This would be an incorrect and perhaps socially unnacceptable methodology. We came to the conclusion that you must eat 1/4 of each pickle before continuing and making one of the pickles a half-pickle. I then got everybody in tears when I asked them how funny it would be if you had people over and they were attracted to the giant jar of pickles. They would ask, “Hey Dave, can I have a pickle?” I would reply “No, but you may have a quarter pickle as I wouldn’t want to be responsible for you ingesting more than your daily value of sodium!” They would then look at me strangely as they reached for a pickle and to their own horror realized that only 3/4 pickles remained in the pickle brine and 3/4 biting backwash. Hilarity would ensue. Pickle brine may shoot from your nostril, possibly landing back into the huge jar!

Wanna come over? I have pickles.

(note: of course the pickles are dill. sweet pickles should not be consumed under ANY circumstance-including starvation)
