"The Dog Telegram"
The dog walked into a Western Union Office
and said he wanted to send a telegram.
The guy behind the counter pushed a form over to him.
The dog filled it out very carefully:
"Bow wow wow. Bow wow. Bow wow wow.",
and slid it back to the attendant.
The attendant read it and said,
"You are allowed 10 words for the same price.
Would you like to add another 'Bow wow'?"
The dog said,
"Well, I could,
but don't you think that would sound a little ridiculous?"
