2nd - Tony Crafter with:
My wife Keeley discovered that our dog Bobby (a Schnauzer) could hardly hear, so she took him to the vet.

The vet examined him and found that the problem was hair in the dog's ears. He cleaned both Bobby's ears, and he could then hear just fine.

The vet then advised Keeley that, if she wanted to keep this from ever happening again, she should go to up the town's chemist and buy some "Nair" hair remover and rub this in Bobby's ears twice a month.

Keeley then went to the store and bought the "Nair" hair remover. At the cash register, the pharmacist advised her, "Now, if you intend using this under your arms, do not use deodorants for two days or so."

Keeley said, "I will not be using it under my arms."

The pharmacist said, "Well, if you intend putting it on your legs, do not use any skin lotions for a couple of days."

Keeley replied, "Well, I'm not using it on the legs either. If you must know, I'm going to use it on my Schnauzer."

"Oh..." The pharmacist said, "Well in that case stay off your bicycle for a week."

=

A convict broke into a house to look for money and to procure a gun. Instead, he found a couple upstairs in bed.

He ordered the guy out of bed and tied him to a chair.

Whilst tying the wife to the bed the convict straddled her and nuzzled her neck, then arose and promptly went to the bathroom.

While he was in there, the husband whispered to his wife: "Listen, this guy is an escaped convict, probably a murderer. Look at his clothes! He's no doubt spent a lot of time in jail and hasn't seen a female for years. I saw him kiss your neck. If he attempts sex, don't resist or complain - do as he tells you, whatever. Satisfy him, no matter if it nauseates you. The guy is obviously very dangerous," he added. "If the big brute gets angry, he'll murder us both. Be strong, honey. I love you!'

The wife retorted: "He wasn't kissing my neck; he was murmuring something in my ear. He told me he's gay, thinks you are rather cute, and asked if we had any Vaseline.

I told him it was in the bathroom... Be strong honey, I love you."
