A young cowboy from Wyoming goes off to college. Half way through the semester, he has 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 in Pfui U. that can teach our dog, Ol' Blue, how to talk!""That's amazing," his Dad says. "How does get Ol' Blue in that program?""Just send him down here with $1,000," the young cowboy says. "I'll get him in the course." So his father sends the dog together with a check for $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 doin', son?" his father asks "Awesome, Dad. He's talking up a storm," the son says "But you just won't believe this - they've had such good results they have started to teach the animals how to read!""Read!?" says his father, "No kidding! How do we get Blue in that program?" "Just send $2,500, and I'll get him in the class."The money promptly arrives. But our hero sense a problem, since the school year is ending and soon his dad will find out the dog can neither talk nor read. So he shoots the dog. When he arrives home at the end of the year, his father is all excited. "Where's Ol' Blue?" his dad asks. "I just can't wait to see him read something and talk!""Dad," the boy says, "I have some grim news. Yesterday morning, just before we left to drive home, Ol' Blue was in the living room, laying 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 in town?"The father exclaimed, "I hope you shot that son of a b**ch before he talks to your Mother!""I sure did, Dad!""That's my boy!"The kid went on to be a successful lawyer, and eventually was elected Governor of Illinois.
