I can’t resist. This is from today’s Herald:

A man walks into a bar with a dachshund. The dog is wearing a England rugby jersey and is festooned with England pom-poms. The bartender says, “Hey! No pets allowed! You’ll have to leave.” The guy begs, “I’m desperate! We’re both big fans, the TV’s broken at home, and this is the only place where we can see the game.” The bartender relents and lets them stay and watch the game. The Poms receive the kick-off, march down field, get stopped at the 22, and Wilkinson kicks a penalty goal. The dog jumps on the bar and walks up and down giving high-fives to everyone. The bartender exclaims, “Wow, that is the most amazing thing I’ve seen! What does the dog do if they score a try?” The owner replies, “I don’t know, I’ve only had him for three years.”

    I think I get it. ๐Ÿ˜‰

  2. I wondered if I should post an explanation for the Yanks. ๐Ÿ™‚

    (Basically, England have a really good kicker and he’s been scoring literally all their points. Everyone else in the world thinks that makes for a very boring game. Imagine if the winning SuperBowl team didn’t score a single touchdown but just marched down to the 30-yard-line and kicked a field goal every single time. You get the picture.)
