Boom boom, and one for luck

Two old men in a pub, with a dog licking his balls by the fireside.

One says to the other, "Don't you wish you could do that?"

The other replies, "Give him a biscuit and he will probably let you."

    A short but lovely story.

    Thank you for making me smile, Tom, even if I anticipated the punch line.

    No matter. I watched way too much of what has taken place in Washington, DC today. The inauguration speech was just more of the campaign darkness.

    I'm not knitting one of those pink hats. The long game beckons. Time to get involved again.

      I spent most of the day today working in a girl's boarding school, so I think I can be forgiven for this... maybe...

      You didn't have to look at their faces.

    Nice one! Thanks for the smile. That's my idea of a classic Tom Stephenson post, right there. 😈

    This is my kind of level - as opposed to the previous 'set' of posts. Mind you, I would have voted for Donald - with my nose pinched and yet my fingers crossed.

    Why does a dog lick his balls? Because he knows in a minute he's gonna lick your face.

    I am no good at getting jokes but I got this one so I will try and remember it until guests come for dinner tonight - I think they are the sort to take it in good part.

      My mother once tried to tell me a joke - this one:

      What's pink and wrinkly and hangs out your trousers? Your mother.

      She actually said, "What's pink and wrinkly and hangs out of your trousers?"

      She couldn't understand why I thought it was so funny.
