Just for Fun
Created | Updated Jun 22, 2003
I have a new puppy, she's 17 weeks old this week, and she answer's to the name Kolin. People keep telling me to change the name, but I don't think that's fair, as she already knows her name.
What do you all think... if you have a view, write to me at the e-mail address printed below.

JOKE OF THE WEEK
Greebo was getting pretty desperate for money. She decided to go to the nicer, richer neighborhoods around town and look for odd jobs as a handy woman.
The first house she came to, a man answered the door and told Greebo,
"Yeah, I have a job for you. How would you like to paint the porch?"
"Sure that sounds great!" said Greebo.
"Well, how much do you want me to pay you?" asked the man.
"Is fifty pounds all right?" Greebo asked.
"Yeah, great. You'll find the paint and ladders you'll need in the
garage."
The man went back into his house to his wife who had been listening.
"Fifty pounds! Does she know the porch goes all the way around the
house?" asked the wife.
"Well, she must, she was standing right on it!" her husband replied.
About 45 minutes later, Greebo knocked on the door. "I'm all finished,"
she told the surprised homeowner The man was amazed.
"You painted the whole porch?"
"Yeah," Greebo replied, "I even had some paint left, so I put on two
coats!"
The man reached into his wallet to pay Greebo.
"Oh, and by the way," said Greebo, "That's not a Porch, it's a Ferrari."
GET YOUR THINKING CAP ON
