I thought this was so funny-

The next time someone asks you a dumb question,

wouldn't you like to respond like this?

Yesterday I was buying a large bag of Purina dog chow for Lucy,

the wonder dog, at Wal-Mart and was about to check out. A woman behind me asked if I had a dog.

What did she think I had?

An elephant?

On impulse, I told her that no, I didn't have a dog, and that

I was starting the Purina Diet again.

I probably shouldn't, I said, since I ended up in the hospital last time. But, I had lost 50 pounds before I awakened in intensive care with tubes coming out of most of my orifices and IVs in both arms.

I told her that it was essentially a perfect diet: load your pockets with Purina nuggets and simply eat one or two every time you feel hungry and that the food is nutritionally complete so I was going to try it again.

(I have to mention here that practically everyone in the line was by now listening to my story).

Horrified, she asked if I ended up in intensive care because the

dog food poisoned me.

I told her no, I stepped off a curb to sniff an Irish Setter's ass and a car hit us both.
