All day long the dumb dog slept in the living room and made a racket snoring. She decided to take him to the vet to find out if anything could be done. The vet told Mary to take the dog home and tie his balls, and the snoring would stop. When Mary got home, she took the dog into her bedroom, reached into a drawer, and pulled out a red ribbon. She tied the ribbon around the dog's balls. It worked like a charm!!! Peace and quiet all day!!! As luck would have it, Mary's husband arrived home from work that day very late and very drunk. He skipped supper and went straight to bed, falling across the bed in a drunken stupor. And snored. Mary thought to herself, if it worked for the dog .... She reached into the drawer, pulled out a blue ribbon, and tied it around her husband's balls. She reasoned that it was the only way that she was going to get any sleep that night. The next morning, while Mary slept peacefully, her husband got up to go to the bathroom. He came out of the bathroom with a puzzled look on his face. Seeing the dog asleep in the corner, he said "I don't remember where we were last night, but we took first and second prizes."
