Dr. Cutter is the local Veterinarian, known for his wry humor. He
surpassed himself one summer day when a city dog was brought to him
after an encounter with a porcupine.
After almost an hour of prying, pulling, cutting and stitching, he
returned the dog to its owner, who asked what she owed.
"Fifteen dollars, Ma'am," he answered.
"Why that's simply outrageous!" she stormed. "That's what's wrong
with you Maine people, you're always trying to over-charge summer
visitors. Whatever do you do in the winter, when we're not being
gypped here?"
"Raise porcupines, Ma'am."

A minister parked his car in a no-parking zone in a large city
because he was short of time and couldn't find a space with a meter.
Then he put a note under the windshield wiper that read"
"I have circled this block 10 times. If I don't park here, I'll miss
my appointment. Forgive us our trespasses."
When he returned 2 hours later, he found a citation from a police
officer along with this note:
"I've circled this block for 10 years. If I don't give you a ticket
I'll lose my job. Lead us not into temptation."

While driving in Pennsylvania, a family caught up to an Amish horse-
driven carriage.
The owner of the carriage obviously had a sense of humor, because
attached to the back of the carriage was a hand-painted sign:
"Energy efficient vehicle: Runs on oats and grass. Caution: Do not
step in exhaust."
