I received this in my e-mail recently. It just tickled me!

Dr. Cutter is the local Veterinarian, known for his wry
humor. He surpassed himself one summer day when a city dog
was brought to him after an encounter with a porcupine.
After almost an hour of prying, pulling, cutting and
stitching, he returned the dog to its owner, who asked
what she owed.
"Fifteen dollars, Ma'am," he answered.
"Why that's simply outrageous!" she stormed. "That's
what's wrong with you Maine people, you're always trying
to over charge summer visitors. Whatever do you do in the
winter, when we're not being gypped here?"
"Raise porcupines, Ma'am."
(Personally, I think $15 is one heck of a bargain! This must have been written a while back)
