Have You Heard This One?

Two wolves walk into a bar. The first says, “What a day.”

The second buys the drinks.

First one gets to talking. “I install air conditioners. My first job, the place is straw. When I test the unit, the whole place falls down. The pig’s suing me.

“The second house is twigs. I say I’m not doing it. Too dangerous. So he yells, ‘Breach of contract.’

“At the brick house, the guy’s a lawyer. Rants at me about how his brothers are taking me to court. So I eat him. Now I’ve got indigestion.”

The second says, “Have an antacid.”

This is the absolute best so far — had me laughing out loud — and so apt for the times!

I think you should turn your modified fairy tale series and make it into a book with some great illustrations.

  Writing this was fun. The joke format worked to keep a complicated story simple enough to write in 100 words.
