Thanks Laurence and here's one back at ya.
Hugs and a smile, Nancy
PS. I got so many of these I could send forever! I won't DJ.
A man runs into the vet's office carrying his dog, screaming for help. The
vet rushes him back to an examination room and has him put his dog down on
the examination table. The vet examines the still, limp body and after a few
moments, tells the man that his dog, regrettably, is dead. The man, clearly
agitated and not willing to accept this, demands a second opinion.
The vet goes into the back room and comes out with a cat and puts the cat
down next to the dog's body. The cat sniffs the body, walks from head to
tail, poking and sniffing the dog's body and finally looks at the vet and
meows. The vet looks at the man and says, "I'm sorry, but the cat thinks
that your dog is dead, too."
The man is still unwilling to accept that his dog is dead. So the vet brings
in a black lab, the lab sniffs the body, walks from head to tail, and
finally looks at the vet and barks. The vet looks at the man and says, "I'm
sorry, but the lab thinks your dog is dead too."
The man, finally resigned to the diagnosis, thanks the vet and asks how much
he owes. The vet answers, "$650."
"$650 to tell me my dog is dead?" exclaims the man.
"Well," the vet replies, "I would only have charged you $50 for my initial
diagnosis. The additional $600 was for the cat scan and lab tests."
