The Fireman

A fireman was working on the engine outside the
station when he noticed
a little girl nearby in a little red wagon with little
ladders hung off the
sides and a garden hose tightly coiled in the middle.

The girl was wearing a fireman's helmet. The wagon was
being pulled by her
dog and her cat.

The fireman walked over to take a closer look. "That
sure is a nice fire
truck," he said with admiration.
"Thanks" the girl replied.

The fireman looked a little closer and noticed that
the girl had tied the
wagon to her dog's collar and to the cat's testicles.

"Little Partner," the fireman said, "I don't want to
tell you how to run
your rig, but if you were to tie that rope around the
cat's collar, I think
you could go faster."

The girl replied thoughtfully, "You're probably right,
but then I wouldn't
have a siren."
