Ah, from an old Warner Bros Loony Tunes.

Ardis, do you mind if I tell you one of my favorite jokes? The smart dog one reminded me. Here goes:

A man and his talking dog went to audition for a TV show. In the office of the talent scout, the following conversation took place:

Man: What is on top of a house?
Dog: Roof!

Man: What is the consistency of sandpaper?
Dog: Rough!

Man: Who is the most famous baseball player who ever lived?
Dog: Ruth!

The talent scout became exasperated and ordered them out of his office. On the street outside, the dog turned to the man and said “Do you think I should have said DiMaggio?”

I was reading these aloud to my family. Most of them got at least a courtesy laugh. But when I was done my wife said “I love that my honey loves these jokes.”

The saxophone-playing neighbor reminds me of ours–every day at the same hour he’d play through the same mind-numbing exercises. It wasn’t long before I stopped caring what happened to him–and I was pleased when he decided to move out!

A company that makes too many mistakes goes bankrupt. A government that makes too many mistakes borrows money to make more.

I think that’s even more true today than it was in 1951, if that’s possible!
