Here's something I ran across a while ago, and only `re-discovered' it today.
I thought it might be worth a chuckle or two.  ;-)

Subj: Four Dogs

    Four field service engineers from Compugraphic, Honeywell,
Data General and Digital got together one day to brag about
their dogs.
    Each one thought his dog was the smartest and had the
most fantastic abilities, so they decided to show each
other what their respective dogs could do.
    The Compugraphic worker called his dog T-SQUARE, gave her
a piece of chalk, and told her to draw a square, a circle, and
a triangle, which the dog did very accurately.
    The Honeywell worker agreed that T-SQUARE was a very remarkable
dog, but said, "Let me show you what my dog can do."  He called his
dog, SLIDE RULE, and told her to go to a pile of cookies and bring
back exactly one dozen, which SLIDE RULE did without hesitation.
He then commanded the dog to separate the cookies into four equal
stacks, and SLIDE RULE divided them into four stacks of three each
with ease.  They all agreed that his indeed was quite a feat.
    The Data General worker then called his dog to do her thing.
"Come here MEASURE.  Pour seven ounces of milk into this 10 oz.
glass."	 The dog did just that, right to the 7 oz. mark on the glass.
The all agreed that MEASURE was also a very smart dog.
    Then the Digital worker said he had watched all three dogs do
fantastic things, but said, "Let me show you a clever animal..."
He called his dog to him and said, "Now COFFEE BREAK, show them what
you can do..."	Without hesitation, COFFEE BREAK immediately ate all
the cookies, drank all the milk, screwed the other three dogs, claimed
a back injury, and went home on sick leave.
