Ten Bucks
A guy walked into the bar with his talking dog, Barney. Barney sat on the stool beside his owner. The bartender said, “We don’t serve drinks to dogs.”
“That’s ok, I have Barney for conversation. He talks you know.”
“Is that so?” said the bartender. “I’ll tell you what, you get Barney here to talk, and drinks are on the house.”
Sure enough, the guy asked Barney to say a few words, and Barney said, “Hey bartender, nice place you’ve got here.”
The bartender was astounded.
“Will you watch my dog while I use the restroom?” The guy asked.
“Sure,” said the bartender.
While the guy was gone, the bartender offered Barney free drinks to talk.
“You don’t serve dogs drinks,” Barney said.
“I’ll give you ten bucks then,” said the bartender.
“Okay,” said Barney. “What would you like me to say?”
“You’ve said enough already,” said the bartender.
With that, Barney took the ten dollars and bounded out the door.
When told what happened, the guy was frantic. He went running out the door looking for Barney.
He caught up with him three blocks down the street. Barney was humping a poodle, who had the ten bucks in her mouth.
“Barney!” exclaimed the guy. “You’ve never done anything like this before.
“I’ve never had ten bucks before,” explained Barney
