A CAT STORY

We were dressed and ready to go out for the
New Years Eve Party. We turned on a nightlight,
turned the answering machine on, covered our
pet parakeet and put the cat in the backyard.
We phoned the local cab company and requested
a taxi. The taxi arrived and we opened the front
door to leave the house.
The cat we put out in the back yard, scoots back
into the front door. We didn't want the cat shut
in the house because she always tries to eat the bird.
My wife goes out to the taxi, while I went inside to
get the cat. The cat runs upstairs, with me in hot
pursuit.
Waiting in the cab, my wife doesn't want the driver
to know that the house will be empty for the night.
So, she explains to the taxi driver that I will be out
soon, 'He's just going upstairs to say Goodnight to my
mother.'
A few minutes later, I get into the cab. 'Sorry I took so long,'
I said, as we drove away. 'The old bat was hiding under the bed.
I had to poke her with a coat hanger to get her to come out!
She tried to take off, so I grabbed her by the neck. Then, I had
to wrap her in a blanket to keep her from scratching me.
But it worked! I hauled her fat ass downstairs and threw
her out into the back yard again!!
The cab driver hit a parked car....
