A newly discovered chapter in the Book of Genesis has provided the answer to, Where do pets come from?
Adam said, Lord, when I was in the garden, you walked with me everyday. Now I dont see you anymore. Im lonesome here and its difficult for me to remember how much you love me.
And God said, No problem! I will create a companion for you that will be with you forever and who will be a reflection of my love for you, so that you will love me even when you cannot see me. Regardless of how selfish or childish or unlovable you may be, this new companion will accept you as you are and will love you as I do, in spite of yourself.
And God created a new animal to be a companion for Adam. And it was a good animal. And God was pleased. And the new animal was pleased to be with Adam and he wagged his tail. And Adam said, Lord, I have already named all the animals in the Kingdom and I cannot think of a name for this new animal.
And God said, No problem, because I have created this new animal to be a reflection of my love for you. His name will be a reflection of my own name, and you will call him Dog.
And Dog lived with Adam and was a companion to him and loved him.
And Adam was comforted.
And God was pleased.
And Dog was content and wagged his tail.
After a while, it came to pass that Adams guardian angel came to the Lord and said, Lord, Adam has become filled with pride. He struts and preens like a peacock and he believes he is worthy of adoration. Dog has indeed taught him that he is loved, but perhaps too well.
And the Lord said, No problem! I will create for him a companion who will be with him forever and who will see him as he is. The companion will remind him of his limitations, so he will know that he is not always worthy of adoration.
And God created CAT to be a companion to Adam. And Cat would not obey Adam.
And when Adam gazed into Cats eyes, he was reminded that he was not the Supreme Being. And Adam learned humility.
And God was pleased.
And Adam was pleased.
And the Dog was pleased.
And the Cat didnt care one way or the other.

There was once a young man who, in his youth, professed his desire to become a great writer. When asked to define great, he said, I want to write stuff that the whole world will read, stuff that people will react to on a truly emotional level, stuff that will make them scream, cry, be terrified, and howl in pain and anger! He now works for Microsoft writing error messages.

St. Peter told the first husband, I cant let you in. You let alcohol run your life. You even married a girl named Sherry.
Dejected, he turned and walked away.
The next married couple stepped up, and St. Peter told the husband, Cant let you in sir. While you were on earth, you allowed money to run your life.

Un joven, que practicaba el nudismo, recibió una carta de su abuela en la cual le pedÃa que, por favor, le mandara una fotografÃa reciente de él. Como no tenÃa otra, excepto la que se tomó en el campo nudista, decidió enviarle esa, pero antes la partió por la mitad.
Después que hubo mandado la mitad de la fotografÃa por correo, se dio cuenta que habÃa cometido un grave error: le envió a su abuela la mitad equivocada. Pero él mismo se consoló pensando que como la anciana tenÃa tan mala su vista, que tal vez ni cuenta se darÃa. Varios dÃas después, el nieto recibió otra carta de su abuela:
Hijito, te agradezco mucho la foto que me mandaste. Quiero sugerirte que deberÃas cambiarte ese estilo de peinado, pues te hace ver muy cachetón y muy chato.

The wife answers – it was Tiger Woods.
Since the only other person his new bride every slept with was the famous Tiger Woods, hes not at all upset and they get down to it and do the honeymoon thing. When finished, the husband gets out of bed and reaches for the telephone.

The wife says, Tiger wouldnt do that.
Really! Just what would TIGER do? says the husband.
Well we would do it again!
