Lawyers Dog

（单词翻译:单击）

A doctor, a lawyer, and an architect were arguing about who had the smartest dog. They decided1 to settle the issue by getting all the dogs together and seeing whose could perform the most impressive feat2.

"Okay, Rover," ordered the architect, and Rover trotted3 over to a table and in four minutes constructed a complete scale model of a Cathedral out of toothpicks. The architect slipped Rover a cookie, and everyone agreed that it was a pretty impressive performance.

"Hit it, Spot," commanded the doctor. Spot lost no time in performing an emergency Caesarean on a cow. Three minutes later the proud mother of a healthy little heifer was all sewed up and doing fine. Not bad, conceded the onlookers4, and Spot got a cookie from the doctor.

"Your turn, Fella," said the lawyer. Over went Fella, screwed the other two dogs, took their cookies, and went out to lunch.
