Forget about Dog Bites Man. Relegate Man Bites Dog to the back pages.
Today we are dealing with Fish swallows dog, an item which reaches us by
way of Moscow.
The dog was swimming across the Pechora River to join its master
when it vanished, leaving only a ripple. The dog's master, who was fishing
at the time, hauled in his net and found it contained a giant pike. He
looked closely at its mouth and said to himself (probably) "Thereby hangs a
tail."
Yes, it was Fido (or the Russian equivalent). The dog struggled out
after the fish was cut open, and, according to Radio Moscow, hurled itself
at the pike, "barking excitedly."
It is often difficult for fishermen to tell stories about the one that
got away. In this case, Radio Moscow notwithstanding, will it be any easier
to tell about the one that didn't?

were getting very bored one quiet night, when breaking the silence a voice asked over
the air, “Are there any friendly bears listening?”After a moment, another voice replied, “Yes, I'm a friendly bear,” and then another voice, “I'm a friendly bear too!”At this point, the Officer at Headquarters grabbed his microphone and let loose a blistering tirade at the operators for fooling around on a radio link. When he had finished, there was silence for about ten seconds. Then a small voice said, “You're not a very friendly bear, are you?”

A number of years ago, a major meat packer wanted to do a promotional campaign
on radio. The idea was to have call-in contests on radio stations throughout
the country, and the winners would receive large supplies of sirloin steaks.
The researchers had to come up with a name for the contest. The report they
submitted read something like this.
After conducting market research, we have reached the
conclusion that the name "High Steaks" would be an
appropriate name for the contest. We base this conclusion
on interviews and surveys, and we are firmly convinced that
the majority of radio listeners will understand the
double entendre. The only city where we found a lack
of sophistication was Memphis, TN, and there we recommend
that you call the contest "Free Meat."
