Seeing Eye Dog

"Seeing Eye Dog"*

*A man is walking his dog, and passes a little restaurant;
the cooking smells are so tempting, he decides he would
like to stop for lunch, but the sign says no animals are permitted.

After a couple of moment's thought, he decided to brazen
it out: he puts on a pair of sunglasses, walks into the
restaurant, with his dog on a leash and asks to be seated.
The waiter says "I am sorry sir, but we do not permit
animals in the restaurant."

The man says, "But I'm blind, and this is my seeing eye dog."

The waiter responds skeptically: "Your seeing eye dog? Sir,
that dog is a Chihuahua."

The man responds: "A Chihuahua! They gave me a Chihuahua?"

"Parachuting"*

*A blind man was describing his favorite sport, parachuting.
When asked how this was accomplished, he said that things
were all done for him: "I am placed in the door and told
when to jump. My hand is placed on my release ring for me, and out I go."

"But how do you know when you are going to land?" he was asked.

"I have a very keen sense of smell and I can smell the trees
and grass when I am 300 feet from the ground" he answered.

"But how do you know when to lift your legs for the final
arrival on the ground?" he was again asked.

The man quickly answered. "Oh, the dog's leash goes slack."
