第31章 猫在家吗

A man absolutely hated his wife's cat and one day decided to get rid of him by driving him 20 blocks from his home and leaving him in the park。As he was getting home,the cat was walking up the driveway。

The next day he decided to drive the cat 40 blocks away。He put the beast out and headed home。Driving back up his driveway,there was the cat!He kept taking the cat further and further and the cat would always beat him home。At last he decided to drive a few miles away,turn right,then left,past the bridge,then right again and another right until he reached what he thought was a safe distance from his home and left the cat there。

Hours later the man called home to his wife:“Jen,is the cat there?”“Yes,”the wife answered,“why do you ask?”

Frustrated,the man answered,“Put that son of a bitch on the phone,I'm lost and need directions!”

一个男人非常讨厌他老婆的猫,一天他决定开车到离家二十个街区之外的公园,然后把猫扔在那儿不要了。扔完了之后他开车回家,发现猫在家附近的车道上走着。

第二天,他决定把猫扔到离家四十个街区的地方去。他把这只怪兽猫扔了出去然后回家。他开着车进家里的车道时又在那儿看到那只猫了!他又一次一次地把猫扔到更远的地方去,但每次猫都先他一步到家。最后,他决定开几英里,向右拐,再向左拐,然后过桥,再向右拐,知道他到了一个他觉得可以安全地把猫扔了然后自己可以回家的地方。

几个小时之后,这个男人给他老婆打电话说:“简,猫在家吗?”他老婆说:“在家啊。你为什么会问这样的问题啊?”

那个男人非常沮丧地回答说:“让那只该死的猫接下电话。我找不着回家的路了,需要知道如何才能回家!”
