Jumping Through the Hoop ( daily joke 180301 )

Daily joke and the culture behind Narrator – Dave 中国英语世界第一人 Tuesday, March 1st, 2018 Jumping through the Hoop Paul got off the elevator on the 40th floor and nervously knocked on his blind date's door. She opened it and was as beautiful and charming as everyone had said. "I'll be ready in a few minutes," she said. "Why don't you play with Rollo while you're waiting? He does wonderful tricks. He rolls over, shakes hands, sits up and if you make a hoop with your arms, he'll jump through." The dog followed Paul onto the balcony and started rolling over. Paul made a hoop with his arms and Rollo jumped through-- and over the balcony railing to the ground 40 floors down. Just then Paul's date walked out. "Isn't Rollo the cutest, happiest dog you've ever seen?" "To tell the the truth, " he replied, "He seemed a little depressed to me." Topic for Today 180301 Is it possible? 1.
