JUST TO LAUGH

 

A man sees a sign outside a house: “Talking Dog for Sale.” Intrigued, he rings the bell and the owner tells him the dog is in the backyard. The man goes into the backyard and sees a Labrador retriever sitting there. “So you talk?” he asks. “Yep,” the dog replies. The man is astounded. “So, what’s your story?”

The dog looks up and says, “Well, I discovered this gift pretty young and I wanted to help the government, so I told the CIA about my skill. In no time, they had me jetting from country to country, sitting in rooms with spies and world leaders because no one figured a dog would be eavesdropping. I was one of their most valuable spies for eight years. 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 work, mostly wandering near suspicious character characters and listening in. I uncovered some incredible dealings and was awarded a batch of medals. Now I’ve retired, and here I am.” The man is flabbergasted. He goes back in and asks the owner, “How much do you want for the dog?” The owner says, “Ten dollars.” The man can’t believe it. “Ten dollars? Why so little? The do is amazing!” The owner replies, “He’s a liar. He didn’t do any of that stuff.”
