I saw this on another forum and had to share it, Enjoy!

The Purina Diet
I was in Wal-Mart buying several large bags of Purina Dog Chow and was in line to check out. A woman behind me asked if I had a dog........

Duh!

I was feeling a bit crabby so on impulse, I told her no, I was starting The Purina Diet again, although I probably shouldn't because I ended up in the hospital last time, but that I'd lost 50 pounds before I awakened in an intensive care unit with tubes coming out of most of my orifices and IV's in both arms.

Her eyes about bugged out of her head. I went on and on with the bogus diet story and she was totally buying it. I told her that it was an easy, inexpensive diet and that the way it works is to load your pockets or purse with Purina nuggets and simply eat one or two every time you feel hungry. The package said the food is nutritionally complete so I was going to try it again.

I have to mention here that practically everyone in the line was by now enthralled with my story, particularly a tall guy behind her.

Horrified, she asked if something in the dog food had poisoned me and was that why I ended up in the hospital. I said no..... I'd been sitting in the street licking my butt when a car hit me.

I thought the tall guy was going to have to be carried out the door!

LOL ... that reminds me of a trip to Petsmart years ago while buying cat food (at the time I had 11 adults & I forget how many kittens). A normal trip for me to Petsmart was a $400-600 adventure so I could stock up & not have to go so often.

The clerk at the checkout said, "Wow! You must have A LOT of cats!", I looked at her with a straight face & said, "No, I'm having a dinner party & am inviting lots of guests." ... there was dead silence for a long time as she had a lot of stuff to check out ... I didn't say another word until she finally said, "You're not really serious about feeding this to your friends, ARE YOU?" ... she was truly pained by my comment. I finally laughed & told her I was joking but I had her going for a good while.
