I Taught My Cat to Clean My Room

I taught my cat to clean my room, to use a bucket, brush and broom, to dust my books and picture frames, and pick up all my toys and games. He puts my pants and shirts away, and makes my bed, and I should say it seems to me it's only fair he puts away my underwear. In fact, I think he's got it made. I'm not too happy with our trade. He may pick up my shoes and socks, but I clean out his litterbox. Kenn Nesbitt

I Named My Dogs the Strangest Names

I named my dogs the strangest names, not simply "Spot" or "Rover." Instead I named them "Fetch" and "Stay" and "Here Boy" and "Roll Over." Not "Lassie," "Patch," or "Fido." No, instead they're "Shake" and "Crawl" and "Turn Around" and "Take a Bow" and "Come" and "Wave" and "Ball!" I gave them these abnormal names to see what they would do. I thought it would be fun but, sad to say, that isn't true. And now I'm sort of sorry for the crazy names I used. My dogs cannot do any tricks; they're all just too confused. --Kenn Nesbitt
