Bass Pro Shopping

A woman goes into Bass Pro Shop to buy a rod and reel for her
grandson's
birthday. She doesn't know which one to get so she just grabs one and
goes
over to the counter. A Bass Pro Shop associate is standing there
wearing
dark shades. She says, "Excuse me, sir. Can you tell me anything about
this rod and reel?"

He says, "Ma'am, I'm completely blind; but if you'll drop it on the
counter, I can tell you everything from the sound it makes." She
doesn't believe him but drops it on the counter anyway.

He says, "That's a six-foot Shakespeare graphite rod with a Zebco 404
reel and 10-LB. Test line. It's a good all around combination; and
it's on sale this week for only $20.00."

She says, "It's amazing that you can tell all that just by the sound of
it
dropping on the counter. I'll take it!" As she opens her purse, her
credit
card drops on the floor.

"Oh, that sounds like a Master Card," he says.

She bends down to pick it up and accidentally breaks wind. At first she
is
really embarrassed, but then realizes there is no way the blind clerk
could tell it was she who tooted. Being blind, he wouldn't know that
she
was the only person around.

The man rings up the sale and says, "That'll be $34.50 please."

The woman is totally confused by this and asks, "Didn't you tell me
the rod and reel were on sale for $20.00? How did you get $34.50?"

He replies," Yes, Ma'am. The rod and reel is $20.00, but the Duck call
is $11.00 and the Catfish Bait is $3.50.


That's great.

A woman takes her real sick dog to the vet. She gets in the back examination
room and the Vet tells her to place her dog on the table. She has a really
hard time because Freddie is old, big, and heavy but her and the vet get him
up there. He's not very responsive. So the Vet starts to look ole Freddie
over and he's checking everything he can check. But still Freddie doesn't
move much. Then the Vet goes out of the room and returns a couple of minutes
later with this old huge alley cat. The Vet takes the cat and holds it above
Freddies head and in circles he goes all the way to Freddies tail. He then
leaves the room only to return without the cat.

The Vet then tells the woman the bad news. He's says " I'm so sorry but
Freddie is so old and is not responsive I think it's time that we put
Freddie to sleep". She breaks down and cries just like everyone else and
just turns around and goes home without Freddie.

Then 2 months go by and she gets the Vet bill in the mail. She flips out
because the bill says office visit $2500. She is furious and grabs the bill
and heads to the Vet. She storms into his office and demands to know why the
bill is so high. So the Vet explains to her the charges. $25 just for the
visit. $100 for the exam. $200 to put freddie to sleep and $2175 for the Cat
Scan!
