Now that's FUNNY as hell!
Thanks Albert and Seamus. I won't really kick the neighbor's dog. I live in a high-rise condo in downtown San Diego. Our neighbors have no dogs to kick! But, if they did: BANG, Alice--to the moon!
Which reminds me of one of my two favorite New Yorker cartoons: Two astronauts are on the lunar surface, staring at the body of a housewife resting in a crater, as one of them says, "It's Alice Kramden."
The other: A patient is sitting on an examination table and watching his physician air-dance and tug at his ear. The patient says, "Dancer? Prancer? Dancer? Cancer? I have cancer?"
First runner-up: A doctor is talking to his patient: "Anyway, yada-yada-yada, it was malignant."
Second runner-up: A doctor stands at the foot of an empty bed and says, "Good news, Mrs. Jones. I think we got all of it."
