2187.0. "Hope this helps lighten your day!" by PENPAL::TRACHMAN (ZhivagoCats, Ltd..The Inn is Full..264-8298) Mon Jan 30 1989 19:09

This older woman is sitting in her rocking chair on her front 
porch. She has her cat on her lap and is petting him contentedly 
when a fairy godmother appears and offers her three wishes.

"Well," she says. "I guess I'd like to be rich."

And "zing" a mound of gold appears in front of her, enough to 
live lavishly for a hundred years.

"Well," she says, "then I guess I'd like to be young and 
beautiful."

And "zing" she's young and lovely, again.

She sits for a moment, marveling at her new self, and finally 
says, "for my last wish, I'd like you to turn my cat into a 
handsome prince."

And "zing" this gallant man stands before her, looks longingly 
at her and says, "you're going to really regret you got me fixed."

    The Corries (a scots folk-singing duo) have set that joke to music,
    and very nicely too.
    
    	"Oh the night is young
    	    But you'll regret
         The day you took me
            To see the vet!"
                              
    Their audience broke up too.
