The Animal
A man once said to a sheep rancher and said, "If I can guess how many sheep you have may I have one?" Thinking this impossible, the rancher agreed, to which the man replied,"You have 1,795 sheep." "Now how did he get that?" wondered the rancher as the man selected an animal, slung it over his shoulder and turned to leave. "Wait," called the rancher, "If I can guess your occupation can I have that animal back?" "Sure," said the man. "You're a bureaucrat," confirmed the rancher with a grin streching from ear to ear. "How did you figure that out?" asked the stunned man. "Well," grinned the rancher, "put my dog down and I will tell you."
