"Father, my dear old dog is dead. Would you please say a
mass for the
creature?" Father Patrick replied, "I am so very sorry to hear about
your
dog's death. But, unfortunately we cannot have services for an animal
in
the church. However, there's a new denomination down the road, no telling
what they believe, but maybe they'll do something for the animal."
Muldoon said, "I'll go right now. Do you think $500 is enough to donate
for the service?" Father Patrick: "Why didn't you tell me the dog was
Catholic!"

One day, a little girl is sitting and watching her mother do
the dishes at
the kitchen sink. She suddenly notices that her mother
has several strands
of white hair sticking out in contrast on her brunette head.
She looks at her mother and inquisitively asks, "Why are some
of your hairs
white, mom?"
Her mother replied, "Well, every time that you do something wrong
and make
me cry or unhappy, one of my hairs turns white."
The little girl thought about this revelation for a while, and
then said,
"Momma, how come *all* of grandma's hairs are white?"

"A Vet's Second Opinion"
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.
The vet brings
in a black Labrador. 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?!?!" exclaimed 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."

Smartest Man In The World
A doctor, a lawyer, a little boy and a priest were out
for a Sunday
afternoon flight on a small private plane. Suddenly, the plane
developed
engine trouble.
In spite of the best efforts of the pilot the plane started
to go down.
Finally the pilot grabbed a parachute, yelled to the passengers
that they
had better jump, and bailed out. Unfortunately there were only
three
parachutes remaining. The doctor grabbed one and said
"I'm a doctor, I
save lives, so I must live," and jumped out.
The lawyer then said, "I'm the smartest man in the world,
I deserve to
live!" He grabbed a parachute and jumped. The priest looked
at the
little boy and said, "My son, I've lived a long and full life.
You are
young and have your whole life ahead of you. Take the last parachute
and
live in peace". The little boy handed the parachute back
to the priest
and said "Not to worry, Father. The smartest man in the world
just took
off with my back pack."
