A LITERATE DOG

Akpos, the son of a very rich man goes off to college. Half way through the semester, having foolishly squandered all his money he calls home.
"Father" he says, "You won't believe what modern education is developing! They actually have a program here that will teach our dog, Lucky, how to talk!"
"That's amazing," his father says. "How do I get Lucky in that program?"
"Just send him down here with #1000,000" Akpos says "and I'll get him in the course."
So, his father sent the dog and #1000,000. About two-thirds of the way through the semester, the money again runs out. The boy calls home.
"So how's Lucky doing son?" his father asks.
"Awesome, Father, he's talking up a storm," he says, "but you just won't believe this again - they've had such good results they have started to teach the animals how to read!"
"Read!?" says his father, "No kidding! How do we get Lucky in that program?"
"Just send #2000,000, I'll get him in the class."
The money promptly arrives. But our Akpos has a problem. At the end of the year, his father will find out the dog can neither talk, nor read. So he shot the dog. When he arrives home at the end of the year, his father is all excited.
"Where's Lucky? I just can't wait to see him read something and talk!"
"Father" the boy says, "I have bad news. Yesterday morning, just before we left to drive home, Lucky was in the living room, kicked back in the recliner, reading The Economic Times, like he usually does. Then Lucky turned to me and asked, so, is your father still messing around with that little pretty girl who lives down the street?"
The father went white and exclaimed, " What? I hope you shot that son of a bitch before he talks to your Mother!"
"I sure did, Father!"
"That's my boy!"
The kid went on to law school, and now serves as a Member of Parliament.
