Just Passing Through
January 10th, 2008 by timbotronThis is my friend Steve’s dog.
She is young and friendly and affectionate and energetic
. . . and inbred and stupid.
Really stupid.
Untrainably stupid.
Steve says, “You know, last week she pooped a Hot Wheels.”
Apparently Steve’s back yard is something of an archaeological site: generations of toys are buried beneath the turf and his dog digs them up and eats them (despite great efforts to train her otherwise). And despite this, she is in good health.
The running list of remarkable things Steve’s dog has pooped:
•1 Hot Wheels car
•Multiple fragments of plastic army men
•2 bottlecaps
•Countless rocks
•Christmas tinsel
•What may be the remains of a My Little Pony head
•1 small marble
•1 G.I. Joe action figure torso
•A length of nylon rope (it required some ‘midwifing’)
•A length of cotton string (this also required some ‘midwifing’)
•And around 16¢ in change

i hope for the dog’s sake the 16 cents was a dime, a nickle and a penny, not 16 pennies!
