I don't really get this joke... it has some potential... I don't know, maybe someone just put in the wrong punch-line:
In Tennessee, a guy sees a sign in front of a house: "Talking Dog for Sale."
He rings the bell and the owner tells him the dog is in the backyard. The guy goes into the backyard and sees a black mutt just sitting there.
"You talk?" he asks.
"Yep," the mutt replies.
"So, what's your story?"
The mutt looks up and says, "Well, I discovered this gift pretty young and I wanted to help the government, so I told the CIA about my gift, and in no time they had me jetting from country to country, sitting in rooms with spies and world leaders, because no one figured a dog would be eavesdropping. I was one of their most valuable spies eight years running. The jetting around really tired me out, and I knew I wasn't getting any younger and I wanted to settle down. So I signed up for a job at the airport to do some undercover security work, mostly wandering near suspicious characters and listening in. I uncovered some incredible dealings there and was awarded a batch of medals. Had a wife, a mess of puppies, and now I'm just retired."
The guy is amazed. He goes back in and asks the owner what he wants for the dog. The owner says, "Ten dollars." The guy says, "This dog is amazing. Why on earth are you selling him, so cheap?"
The owner replies, "He's such a liar. He didn't do any of that stuff." |

And that's not supposed to say shizzle. I've never used the word shizzle before in my life up to now. |

Definately not funny. I think the joke had something to do with the dog's owner being stupid and selling a talking dog for a very small price. |

I think the humor is in the build up to why he's selling such an accomplished dog, only to find out the dog is full of "shizzle". It's funny b/c the owner could care less about the dog's ability b/c the dog is a liar. It got a laugh out of me. Maybe I just need some sleep. ??? |

Yeah, that was pritty funny...
Here's another...hope it comes across ok in writing...
Middle aged man made a killing working on wall street and decided he wanted to buy a ranch in montana and retire. so he buys a ranch where his nearest neighbor is 5 miles away. about 6 months later he's alone on his ranch working and an ole boy comes riding up on his horse. The ole boy, obviously a hard core cowboy with chaps, spurs, dusty hat, the whole 9 yards, says "Howdy pardner". Mr. wall street smiles and returns the greeting. They talk for a few minutes and finally the cowboy asks wall street (in your best imagined cowboy accent) "hey, you intersted in comin to a party this fridee nite?" The rest of the conversation goes something like this:
Wall Street: "You bet, I've been out here for 6 months and haven't had any contact with another person until today."
Cowboy (don't forget the accent): "I gotta tell ya, there's likely to be alot a drinkin at this here party...hope you ain't got a problem with that."
Wall Street: "Hell no I don't have a problem with that...I worked hard and played hard in New York and can drink with the best of 'em"
Cowboy: "Now, I gotta warn ya, there's lible to be some fightin at this party"
Wall Street: "Fighting? Hmmm....that's ok I guess, it's been a long time since I've been in a really good brawl. Yeah, fighting will be ok"
Cowboy: "Probly gonna be some sex at this party too. You ok with that?"
Wall Street: "Are you kidding? I haven't had sex since I left New York six months ago...hell yeah I'm ok with that"
Cowboy: "Well alrighty then, we'll see ya fridee nite at 8"
As the cowboy starts to ride away, wall street calls out after him "Hey, what should I wear?"
The cowboy just shrugs his shoulders and says "Aw hell boy, it don't much matter, it's just gonna be the two of us" _________________ "Any society that would give up a little liberty to gain a little security will deserve neither and lose both." Benjamin Franklin
