    Default Ole' Blue

    A young cowboy from Texas goes off to college.
    Half way through the semester, having foolishly

    squandered all his money, he calls home.

    "Dad," he says, "You won't believe what modern education
    is developing! They actually have a program here at A&M
    that will teach our dog, Ole' Blue how to talk!"

    "That's amazing," his Dad says. "How do I get Ole' Blue
    in that program?"

    "Just send him down here with $1,000" the young cowboy says"and I'll get him in the course."

    So, his father sends the dog and $1,000.


    About two-thirds of the way through the semester,
    the money again runs out. The boy calls home.

    "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 they have started to teach the animals how to read!"

    "Read!?" says his father, "No kidding! How do we get Blue
    in that program?"

    "Just send $2,500, I'll get him in the class."
    The money promptly arrives. But our hero has a problem.

    At the end of the year, his father will find out the dog
    can neither talk, nor read.

    So he shoots the dog.


    When he arrives home at the end of the year, his father
    is all excited.

    "Where's Ole' Blue? I just can't wait to see him read
    something and talk!"

    "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 Ole' Blue turned to me and asked, "So, is your daddy

    still messing around with that little redhead who lives
    down the street?"

    The father went white and exclaimed, "I hope you shot
    that
    lyingdog before he talks to your mother!"

    "I sure did, Dad!"

    "That's my boy!"

    The kid went on to law school, and is now a Congressman in Washington D.C.

    Dale, the problem with that story is it's too close to the truth to be funny.
    Want to hear God laugh? Tell him Your plans!!!
