    A young farm lad from Innaminka goes off to college,
    but about one third of the way through the semester, he has foolishly squandered away all of the money his parents gave him.

    Then he gets an idea. He calls his daddy. "Dad," he says,

    "you won't believe the wonders that modern education is coming up with!

    Why, they actually have a program here at Melbourne University that will teach our dog Ole Blue how to talk!"


    "That's absolutely amazing," his father says. "How do I get him in that program?"

    "Just send him down here with $1,000" the boy says "I'll get him into the course."

    So, his father sends the dog and the $1,000.

    About two thirds of the way through the semester, the money runs out.

    The boy calls his father again. "So how's Ole Blue doing, son," his father asks.

    "Awesome, Dad, he's talking up a storm," he says,
    "but you just won't believe this - they've had such good results with this program that they've implemented a new one to teach the animals how to READ!"

    "READ," says his father,
    "No kidding! What do I have to do to get him in that program?"

    "Just send $2,500, I'll get him in the class."

    His father sends the money. The boy now has a problem. At the end of the year, his father will find out that the dog can neither talk nor read.


    So he shoots the dog.

    When he gets home at the end of the semester, his father is all excited.

    "Where's Ole Blue? I just can't wait to see him talk and read something!"

    "Dad," the boy says, "I have some grim news.

    Yesterday morning, just before we left to drive home, Ole Blue was in the living room sitting back in the recliner, reading the financial Section in The Age, like he usually does.
    Then he turned to me and asked, 'So, is your dad still messing around with that little redhead who works in the pub in town?'

    The father says, "I hope you SHOT that son of a b#!@!! before he talks to your Mother!"

    "I sure did, Dad!"

    "That's my boy!"

    (The kid went on to be a successful lawyer)

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Jane was a first time contestant on the $65,000 quiz show, where you have to answer questions to win the cash prize.

    Lady luck had smiled in her favor, as Jane had a gained substantial lead over her opponents.
    She even managed to win the game but, unfortunately, time had run out before the show's host could ask her the big question.

    Needless to say, Jane agreed to return the following day.

    Jane was nervous and fidgety as her husband drove them home.

    "I've just gotta win tomorrow. I wish I knew what the answers are.
    You know I'm not going to sleep at all tonight.
    I will probably look like garbage tomorrow."

    "Relax, honey," her husband, Roger, reassured her. "It will all be OK."

    Ten minutes after they arrived home, Roger grabbed the car keys and started heading out the door.

    "Where are you going?" Jane asked.

    "I have a little errand to run. I should be back soon" he replied. Jane waited impatiently for Roger's return.

    After an agonizing 3 hour absence, Roger returned, sporting a very wide and wicked grin.

    "Honey, I managed to get tomorrow's question and answer!"

    "What is it?" she cried excitedly.

    "OK. The question is: 'What are the three main parts of the male anatomy?'

    And the answer is 'The head, the heart, and the penis.' "

    Shortly after that, the couple went to sleep with Jane, now feeling confident and at ease, plummeting into a deep and restful slumber.

    At 3:30 in the morning, however, Jane was shaken awake by Roger, who was asking her the quiz show question.

    "The head, the heart, and the penis," Jane replied groggily before returning to sleep.

    And Roger asked her again in the morning, this time as Jane was brushing her teeth.

    Once again, Jane replied correctly.

    So it was that Jane was once again on the set of the quiz show.

    Even though she knew the question and answer, she could feel the butterflies conquering her stomach and nervousness running through her veins.

    The cameras began running and the host, after reminding the audience of the previous days events, faced Jane and asked the big question.

    "Jane, for $65,000, what are the main parts of the male anatomy?

    You have 10 seconds."

    "Hmm, uhm, the head?" she said nervously.

    "Very good. Six seconds."

    "Eh, uh, the heart?"

    "Very good! Four seconds."

    "I, uhh, ooooooohh, darn!

    My husband drilled it into me last night and I had it on the tip of my tongue this morning..."

    "That's close enough," said the game show host,

    "CONGRATULATIONS!!!"
