JOKE: THE PURINA DIET

I was buying a large bag of Purina dog chow at Wal-Mart and was in line to check out. A woman behind me asked if I had a dog.

On a whim, I told her that no, I was starting The Purina Diet again, although I probably shouldn't because I'd ended up in the hospital last time, but I had lost 50 pounds before I awakened in an intensive care ward with tubes coming out of most of my orifices and IV's in both arms. I told her that it was essentially a perfect diet and that the way it works is to load your pants pockets with Purina nuggets and simply eat one or two every time you feel hungry and that the food is nutritionally complete so I was going to try it again.

I have to mention here that practically everyone in the line, was by now, enthralled with my story.

Horrified, she asked if I was in the hospital because I had been poisoned by the Purina?

I told her "No, I'd been sitting in the street licking my genitals and a car ran over me."
