BUTCHER MONEY WHERE YOUR MOUTH IS
>
>
> A butcher in his shop, and he's real busy, and he notices a dog in the
shop.
> He shoos him away. But later, he notices the dog is back again. So he
goes
> over to the dog, and notices he has a note in his mouth. He takes the
note,
> and it reads, "Can I have 12 sausages and a leg of lamb, please. The dog
has
> money in his mouth, as well." The butcher looks inside and, lo and
behold,
> there is a ten dollar bill there.
>
> So he takes the money, and puts the sausages and lamb in a bag, placing
it
> in the dog's mouth. The butcher is well impressed, and since it's close
to
> closing time, he decides to shut up shop and follow the dog. So off he
goes.
> The dog is walking down the street, when he comes to a level crossing.
The
> dog puts down the bag, jumps up and presses the button. Then he waits
> patiently, bag in mouth, for the lights to turn. They do, and he walks
> across the road, with the butcher following him all the way.
>
> The dog then comes to a bus stop, and starts looking at the timetable.
The
> butcher is in awe at this stage. The dog checks out the times, and then
sits
> on one of the seats provided. Along comes a bus. The dog walks around to
the
> front, looks at the number, and goes back to his seat. Another bus comes.
> Again the dog goes and looks at the number, notices it's the right bus,
and
> climbs on. The butcher, by now open-mouthed, follows him onto the bus.
The
> bus travels through the town and out into the suburbs, the dog looking at
> the scenery. Eventually he gets up, and moves to the front of the bus. He
> stands on 2 back paws and pushes the button to stop the bus.
>
> Then he gets off, his groceries still in his mouth. Well, dog and butcher
> are walking along the road, and then the dog turns into a house. He walks
up
> the path, and drops the groceries on the step. Then he walks back down
the
> path, takes a big run, and throws himself -Whap!- against the door. He
goes
> back down the path, runs up to the door and -Whap!- throws himself
against
> it again. There's no answer at the house, so the dog goes back down the
> path, jumps up on a narrow wall, and walks along the perimeter of the
> garden.
>
> He gets to the window, and beats his head against it several times, walks
> back, jumps off, and waits at the door. The butcher watches as a big guy
> opens the door, and starts laying into the dog. Kicking him, punching
him,
> and swearing at him. The butcher runs up, and stops the guy. "What the
hell
> are you doing? The dog is a genius. He could be on TV, for Roc's sake!",
to
> which the guy responds "Clever, my eye. This is the second time this week
> that he's forgotten his key." |
