I was in Wal-Mart buying a large bag of Purina for my dogs and was in line to check out. A woman behind me asked if I had a dog........ Duh!
I was feeling a bit crabby, so on impulse, I told her no, I was
starting The Purina Diet again, although I probably shouldn't because I'd ended up in the Hospital last time. I'd lost 50 pounds before I awakened in an intensive care unit with tubes coming out of most of my orifices and IV's in both arms. Her eyes about bugged out of her head.
I went on and on with the bogus diet story, and she was totally buying it. I told her that it was an easy, inexpensive diet and that the way it works is to load your pockets or purse with Purina nuggets and simply eat one or two every time you feel hungry. The package said the food is nutritionally complete, so I was going to try it again.
I have to mention here that practically everyone in the line was by now enthralled with my story, particularly a tall guy behind her.
Horrified, she asked if something in the dog food had poisoned me and was that why I ended up in the hospital. I said no.....I'd been sitting in the street licking
my butt when a car hit me.
I thought the tall guy was going to have to be carried out the door! |

Julie, it's a joke that has been forwarded around on email a few times. Unless Cristine was the one who originally created the story??? It is kind of funny, isn't it?
Maybe we should clarify jokes in our subject lines, or make sure we reference that we're posting things we have seen or heard already.
