Array ( [sid] => 174693 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Jake [time] => 2013-01-01 09:50:42 [hometext] => [bodytext] => Now I know you've heard the stories
About those animals who are smart
But here's a tale of a dog named Jake
Who was a genius right from the start

Now, this dog could do anything
He could even add and subtract
He even starred in a broadway play
And, man, that dog could act

Now nobody ever had to feed him
For he was even a gourmet chef
Did I mention he was a teacher?
He taught sign language to the deaf

Now Jake was not an ordinary dog
He remembers everything he sees
For he has a photographic memory
And even knows the names of his fleas

He wouldn't just bring your slippers
He would put them on your feet
That dog would even remember to flush
And put down the toilet seat

Jake even took the children to school
And stayed with them all day long
He heard every word the teacher said
And corrected her when she was wrong

Now you probably think I made this up
And everything I've told you is fake
But I'll bet you'll be surprised to know
That this poem was written by Jake [comments] => 3 [counter] => 199 [topic] => 7 [informant] => Whiskurz [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => HumorPoetry )
