Watson is just fooling around

Watson here, and I am here to warn you that Thursday is April 1, April Fools’ Day. Around our house, we spend time trying to fool each other. My best move is waking mom up very early to get my breakfast. If I do it just right she does not look at the clock, and I get double breakfast. I am nobody’s fool!

Actually, I like a good joke that tickles the funny bone, so here are a few of my favorite dog jokes. A dog walks into a bar and hops up on a stool. He looks the bartender straight in the eye and says, “Hey, guess what! I can talk. That is amazing isn’t it? How about a drink?”

The bartender thinks for a moment and says, “Sure, the toilet is right around the corner.”

A man walks into a bar with a cat and a dog. They all sit down and the bartender says, “What can I get you? The dog looks squarely at the bartender and says, “I’ll take vodka, the man will have water, and the cat would like Scotch.” The bartender, in shock, says to the dog, “This is amazing! You are a talking dog.” The man looks at the bartender and says, “Don’t be fooled, the cat is a ventriloquist.”

Of course, there is always the story about the farmer who is missing his dog and after a long hard day of searching for him, he finally gives up and says, “Doggone.”
XOXO Watson

LOOKING FOR A HOME
