Don't mean to hijack the thread but it invoked an interesting, (at least for me) memory.
Several years ago I'm in my back yard mowing the lawn, my trusty Springer Spaniel
sitting on the deck and drooling impatiently for me to shut the damn tractor down.
I happened to look up as a late model luxury car pulls into the driveway and out steps a very well dressed man with an enormous smile. My dog's name is Rocket, Rocky for short...and after taking one look at Mr. Suit that's just what he did, rocketed right through a newly installed screen door.
Turns out Mr. Suit is a semi local political hopeful, out stumping
for votes.
Just saw on the news last night that Mr. Suit is now under investigation for some sort of political flimflamery.....Rocky is now for rent or lease.
