Counting Sheep
« on: November 03, 2013, 22:14 »
"Come by!" called the farmer.  He heard the sheepdog before he saw it, and cursing his failing eyes, reached out to pat the dog's head roughly.  "There's a good boy."  Then he knelt down and said to the dog, "I can't count them blasted sheep any more.  I need you to count them for me.  Can you do that for me, boy?"

The dog barked twice and ran off, returning after a couple of minutes.

“So,” said the farmer. “How many sheep was there then?”

“40,” replied the dog.

“What?  How can that be?” exclaimed the farmer.  “I only bought 38!”

“I know,” said the dog.  “I rounded them up.”
