Dragnet, a very discerning gentleman who lives southwest, sent this oldie...

One Sunday, in counting the money in the weekly offering, the pastor of a
small church found a pink envelope containing $1,000. It happened again
the next week!
The following Sunday, he watched as the offering was collected and saw an
elderly woman put the distinctive pink envelope on the plate. This went on
for weeks until the pastor, overcome by curiosity, approached her.
"Ma'am, I couldn't help but notice that you have been putting $1,000 each
week in the collection plate," he stated.
"Why, yes," she replied, "every week my son sends me money, and I give
some of it to the church."
The pastor replied, "That's wonderful. But $1,000 is a lot of money. Are you
sure you can afford this? How much does he send you?"
The elderly woman answered, "$10,000 a week."
The pastor was amazed. "Your son is obviously very successful; what does
he do for a living?"
"He is a veterinarian," she answered.
"That's an honorable profession, but I had no idea they made that much
money," the pastor said, "Where does he practice?"
The woman answered proudly, "In Nevada ... He has two cat houses, one
in Las Vegas, and one in Reno."
