A young lad goes off to college.....
A young farm lad from North Iowa goes off to college, but about 1/3 of
the
way through the semester, he has foolishly squandered away all of the
money
his parents gave him. Then he gets an idea. He calls his daddy. "Dad,"
he
says, "you won't believe the wonders that modern education is coming
up
with! Why, they actually have a program here at Iowa State that will
teach
our dog Ole Blue how to talk!""That's absolutely amazing," his father
says.
"How do I get him in that program?""Just send him down here with
$1,000"
the boy says. "I'll get him into the course.So, his father sends the
dog
and the $1,000. About 2/3 way through the semester, the money runs
out. The
boy calls his father again."So how's Ole Blue doing, son," his father
asks."Awesome, Dad, he's talking up a storm," he says, "but you just
won't
believe this - they've had such good results with this program that
they've
implemented a new one to teach the animals how to READ!""READ," says
his
father, "No kidding! What do I have to do to get him in that
program?"Just
send $2,500, I'll get him in the class.His father sends the money.The
boy
now has a problem. At the end of the year, his father will find out
that
the dog can neither talk, nor read. So he shoots the dog.When he gets
home
at the end of the semester, his father is all excited. "Where's Ole
Blue? I
just can't wait to see him talk and read something!""Dad," the boy
says, "I
have some grim news. Yesterday morning, just before we left to drive
home,
Ole Blue was in the living room kicked back in the recliner, reading
the
Wall Street Journal, like he usually does. Then he turned to me and
asked,
'So, is your daddy still messin' around with that little redhead who
lives
in town?'The father says, "I hope you SHOT that son of a b!^@h before
he
talks to your Mother!""I sure did, Dad!""That's my boy!"(The kid went
on to
be a successful lawyer......) :thumbs
