A young cowboy from Wyoming went off to college, half way through the semester, he had 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 that will teach our dog "Ol’ Blue" how to talk!”
“That’s amazing,” his Dad says. “How do I get Ol’ 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 Ol’ Blue doing son?” his father asks.
“Awesome, Dad, he’s talking up a storm,“but you just won’t believe this,
they’ve had such good results they have a course to teach the animals how
to read!”
“Read!?” says his father, “No kidding! How do we get Ol'Blue in that program?”
“Just send $2,500, and 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 arrived home at the end of the year, his father was all excited,
“Where’s Ol’ Blue? I just can’t wait to see him read something, and talk!”
“Dad,” the boy says, I have some bad news, yesterday morning, just before we started to drive home, Ol’ Blue was in the living room, kicked back in the recliner, reading the "Wall Street Journal", like he usually does, then he turned to me and asked, “So, is your daddy still messing around with that little redhead who lives down the street?"
The father started to panic and he said, “I hope you shot that SOB before he had a chance to talk to your Mother!”
“I sure did, Dad!”
Dad said, “That’s my boy!”
