Анекдоты
A family was visiting an Indian reservation when they happen upon an old tribesman laying face down in the middle of the road with his ear pressed firmly against the blacktop. The father of the family asked the old tribesman what he was doing.
The tribesman began to speak... "woman, late thirties, three kids, one barking dog in late model, Four door station wagon, traveling at 65 m.p.h."
"That's amazing" exclaimed the father. "You can tell all of that by just listening to the ground"?
"No", said the old tribesman. "They just ran over me five minutes ago!"

Little Nancy was in the garden filling in a hole when her neighbor peered over the fence. Interested in what the little girl was
up to, he politely asked,
`What are you up to there, Nancy?`
`My goldfish died,` replied Nancy tearfully, without looking up,
`and I’ve just buried him.`
The neighbor was concerned,
`That’s an awfully big hole for a goldfish, isn’t it?`
Nancy patted down the last heap of earth and then replied,
`That`s because he`s inside your stupid cat.`
