  1. Funny Story

    Share Share Post
    A certain man and woman were always fighting with each other. This day a man went into the house and the man and woman were fighting. There was a cat and dog sitting by the fire and the man who came in told them that they should agree. The man said "Look how happy the cat and dog are" and the man who was fighting answered, "tie them together and see what will happen."
