Original Blog Entry: Ole' Blue...

A young cowboy from Texas goes off to college.

Half way through the semester, having 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 at A M that will teach our dog,

Ole' Blue how to talk!

That's amazing, his Dad says. How do I get

Ole' Blue in that program?

Just send him down here with $1,000 the young

cowboy says and I'll get him in the course.

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

About two-thirds of the way through the semester,

the money again runs out. The boy calls home.

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 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, I'll get him in the class.

The money promptly arrives. But our hero has a

problem. At the end of the year, his father 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 Ole' Blue? 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,

Ole' Blue was in the living room, kicked back in the

recliner, reading the Wall Street Journal, like he

usually does .

Then Ole' Blue turned to me and asked, so, is your

daddy still messing around with that little redhead

who lives down the street?

The father went white and exclaimed, I hope you

shot that lying dog before he talks to your Mother!

I sure did, Dad!

That's my boy!

The kid went on to law school, and now serves in

Washington D.C. as a Congressman.
