The Local Circus
The main animal attraction at the local circus was a trained zebra. During a recent tour of the countryside the poor animal got sick and the vet in town suggested for the animal to stay on a one of the farms to be picked up again when the circus returned from the tour and so the show went on without their main attraction.
However, the zebra got better much sooner than expected and started walking around meeting the other animals. He first came across the dog.
'Hi,' he said. 'What are you and what do you do? '
'I’m a dog and I guard this place,' said the dog.
And the zebra went on and met the cat.
'Hi,' he said. 'What are you and what do you do?'
'I’m a cat and I catch the mice around here,' said the cat.
And the zebra went on and met the cow.
'Hi,' he said. 'What are you and what do you do?'
'I’m a cow and I give milk,' said the cow,
Very disappointed that nobody could do any tricks he went on. Then he met the bull.
'Hi,' he said. 'What are you and what is your job here?'
'Why you stupid donkey,' snorted the bull.
'Take off that silly looking pajamas and I’ll show you. '
I'll be going to sleep in a while but I hope you enjoy this old joke from my young days.

In some part of the world somebody is heating up supper and I am patiently waiting.
I hope you love sea food because of course, She lives in Paradise, where the bounty of the sea is endless..and warm by the way. Not like our Pacific Ocean part in the West, It is always cold and the taste of the fish is not quite as good as in the warm water of the Pacific, along Australia, Asia and Hawaii. Well, all of which I have lived for a while and in Australia for just a bit..
Take care.

I like catching fish seven days a week but I dont want to eat it more than twice a week. And preferably not for supper. I am a beef eater.
hmmm I do wonder what the bull was going to show him!
I enjoyed this!
Hi how are you? Happy to see you back on the blogs!
@Cat, sorry for the hijack!
but don't understand me wrong. I do see animals as an edible asset. I go hunting once a year on a game farm. I just don't want to see animals being treated cruelly and don't want to see them outside their natural habitat.
Hmmmm it would make you blush!!!
let sleeping bull in peace. they are better when not disturbed.
on me
I am slow tonight.
I don't mind veggies on my plate either. Specially spinach, green beans, mutton, pork, poultry and cabbage. As long as there is a big chunk of beef on the plate.
I'm so pleased you got it. I'm not good at explaining the facts of life. I forgot you live on an Island where there are not a lot of animals.
My island home does have animals
The facts of life .no explanation necessary
lions are just big Cats; are they not?
maybe one day all cats grow up
@Cat, Ohhh of course, I love fishing too...it is very stress lessening but neither do I want to eat everyday. But three times a week I can handle it.. AHI, I can eat everyday tough, and the Chilean sea bass..
Take care my dear friends...

Small cats mark their territory just like the larger cats. And the defend it against intruders. This is part of why they scratch trees. It is not just to sharpen their nails. It is to show other cats how high he can reach. Something that happens in the entire cat family.
Too funny!!...nothing like show and tell...enjoy your rest!!
Same page my dear. Different books it is.
Glad you liked. Enjoy your Friday
