My landlord's Maltese Poodle tends to get frisky with his blanket now and again and this has caused a certain memory of mine to resurface.
Many years ago, when my beloved Maltese Poodle was still alive the following incident occurred:
One summers day, my father and I witnessed my poodle having his way with a rather large beach ball on the grass next to the pool. Sensing my conservative father's disgust, I attempted to ease the tension with a witty comment: "Mini-me stop humping the laser!" This unfortantely, only served to further aggravate my father and he retorted: "You can see this dog is from Lavender Hill!" (a rough area on the Cape flats), before storming off.
That's all.

A Creative Defaulter
Patient: Hi
OT: Hi DJ! Where have you been?! You have missed your appointments for the last 4 months!
Patient: I've been busy.
OT: Busy doing what?
Patient: I took up swimming.
OT: Swimming... OK good, can we make an appointment for you for next month?
Patient: I'm sort of occupied.
OT: Are you coming to collect medication next month?
Patient: Yes.
OT: OK so on that day you won't be occupied. Come and see me after you collect your medication.
Patient: The thing is I normally see Mishka.
OT: Mishka stopped working here nearly a year ago. You know that. You have been coming to see me for months now.
Patient: After Mishka left I used to see Lauren.
OT: There has never been a therapist by the name of Lauren that worked here. DJ are you trying to avoid me because I make you work hard in therapy and don't accept excuses?
Patient: No
OT: OK. Ill see you next month then :-). What time can I expect you?
Patient: Ummm...
OT: ( Looks at patient's appointment card). You can come and see me at 08h30.
Patient: Make it 09h00.
OT: But you are collecting your medication at 08h00. You know you normally come to me after you put your card in the box, so let's make it at 08h30.
Patient: Ill see you at at 09h00.
OT: (Sigh)
Lets hope DJ pitches for his appointment tomorrow.
That's all.

A Skinny Black Cappuccino
The following conversation took place in a restaurant in Durban:
Customer: Can I have decaf cappuccino please?
Waiter: OK. Do you want a white cappuccino or a black cappuccino?
Customer: Ummm... what is a white cappuccino and what is a black cappuccino?
Waiter: A white cappuccino has milk, a black one doesn't...
Customer: (perplexed) Don't all cappuccinos have some form of milk in it?
Waiter: (silent)
Customer: (Pages through the menu to have a look at the hot beverages page) Ohhhh! You mean a white chocolate cappuccino and a dark chocolate cappuccino .
Waiter: Yes.
Customer: I'll still have a regular decaf cappuccino thanks.
Waiter: OK.
(A little while later the waiter brings the beverages to the table and leaves)
Customer (to her friend): This is a dark chocolate cappuccino ... guess I look like a black cappuccino kind of girl...
(Customer leaves the waiter a VERY large tip in the hope that she will use the money to buy herself a clue.)
That's all.
