So a dog walks into a post office.

Dog: I want to send a telegram.

Postman: Okay, what would you like to say?

Dog: I would like to say, 
     "Woof, woof. 
       Woof woof woof. 
       Woof woof, woof woof."

Postman: For the same price, you could put another woof in there.

Dog (incredulously): Uh, but that wouldn't make any sense!

There's this guy, he's driving down the road, and he's got 17 penguins in the back of his car.  This cop sees him, & the cop stops him.

Cop: I don't know what's going on here, but you've got to take these penguins to the zoo.


Guy: Um, okay.

The next day, the same guy is driving, he's got the same seventeen penguins in the back of his car. The same cop is in the speed trap and stops him again.

Cop: Look man, I stopped you yesterday, I told you get these penguins to the zoo.

Guy: I took them to the zoo - today we're going to the beach!
