"Something's wrong with my poor dog," the woman said to the veterinarian as she laid her spaniel on the table.

"Let's run a test," replied the vet. He reached down to the floor, picked up the office cat, and set it at the dog's feet. The cat's tail twitched as it gingerly walked around and over the dog, sniffing. Finally it let out a loud meow and jumped from the table, just as the dog snapped at it, sprang up and took off in hot pursuit.

"There, he looks fine now," the vet said. "That'll be $345."

"$345?!" the woman recoiled. "You're kidding! For what?"

The lawyer explained that his client fought tenaciously at Omaha Beach on D-Day. "Why, I fought there myself," the judge said sympathetically. "Perhaps we even met. In what division were you, sir?" The defendant mumbled, "Ninth Panzer, Your Honor."

"Of course you were good at history. You were there!"
