Rambling Over Coffee: Another dumb joke that made me chuckle

A woman brought a very limp parrot to her vet. As she lay her pet on the table, the vet pulled out his stethoscope and listened to the bird’s chest. After a moment or two, the vet shook his head sadly and said, " I’m so sorry, Polly has passed away." The distressed owner wailed, “Are you sure? I mean, you haven’t done any testing on him or anything. He might just be in a coma or something.”

The vet sighed, shrugged, turned and left the room returning a few moments later with a big black Labrador. As the bird’s owner looked on in amazement, the dog stood on his hind legs, put his front paws on the examination table and sniffed the dead parrot from top to bottom. He then looked at the vet with sad eyes and shook his head.


The vet looked at the woman and said, “I’m sorry, but like I said, your parrot is most definitely, 100% certifiably dead.”



The vet shrugged. "If you’d taken my word for it, the bill would only have been $20, but with the Lab Report and the Cat Scan… what did you expect?
