Welcome to the 21st edition of Funny Friday. The once a week event created to remind people to smile in these often dark times.
Last week I held a simple contest on who could tell the best joke, you can find that ( LINK HERE )
To avoid any bias choice on my behalf, my wife was the judge of this contest. Her joke of choice came from Cass Morrison, with her following joke:
This was just sent to me by a friend ….
A guy is driving around the back woods of Montana and he sees a sign in front of a broken down shanty-style house: ‘Talking Dog For Sale ‘He rings the
bell and the owner appears and tells him the dog is in the backyard.The guy goes into the backyard and sees a nice looking Labrador retriever sitting there.’You talk?’ he asks.‘Yep,’ the Lab replies.
After the guy recovers from the shock of hearing a dog talk, he says ‘So, what’s your story?’
The Lab looks up and says, ‘Well, I discovered that I could talk when I was pretty young.. I
wanted to help the government, so I told the CIA.In no time at all 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 running…
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, wandering near suspicious characters and listening
in. I uncovered some incredible dealings and was awarded a batch of
medals.’‘I got married, had a mess of puppies, and now I’m just retired.’
The guy is amazed. He goes back in and asks the owner what he wants for the
dog.‘Ten dollars,’ the guy says.
‘Ten dollars? This dog is amazing! Why on earth are you selling him so cheap?’
‘Because he’s a liar. He’s never been out of the yard’
Thank you Cass Morrison, and everyone else who submitted their joke. Although not everyone can win, everyone can get a smile from reading something funny. Keep your eyes open for the next contest, you never know when the next Funny Friday will offer you another prize.
