I have a story that came from one of the Fathers of the Sacred Hearts in the Bahamas — but I have no name attached to it. It’s the one about the man and his dog who are walking the beach when they come upon another visitor to the beach. The owner of the dog is proud of his dog’s newly mastered feat — so he says to the visitor, “Watch this!” Whereupon he tosses a piece of driftwood far out into the sea and the dog immediately runs on top of the ocean and fetches the wood and runs back. The visitor just shakes his head in disbelief. Whereupon the owner repeats the procedure twice. Finally he asks the visitor — “Did you notice anything unusual?” The visitor responds, “Your dog can’t swim, can he?”
