[Dailydrool] Curious huh?

[Dale Rutz]

Well, if you think Bev is curious you haven't seen anything yet.  There are 
plenty of things the clueless momPerson wants to know.  For example:

1)  How does Snoopy get things from the MIDDLE of the counter where even Cyrus 
cannot reach?  I suspect that is his photograph on the card that Ruger and 
Colt's mom (Michele) shared.  My husband caught him last night .... he said 
Snoopy jumped as high as he could, stuck his neck all the way out, stuck his 
TONGUE all the way out, and managed to tag the donut box in the center of the 
counter and knock it to the ground, knocking the challah loaf down in the wake. 
 Cluelessness runs in the family though and rather than take the donuts AWAY 
from Snoopy my DH came to me to share this information and by the time I got to 
the kitchen Snoopy had polished off the 4 remaining donuts (2 chocolate of 
course) and was working on the challah (which I took).

2)  Why are people such IDIOTS?  Last night I walked Snoopy and Cyrus (like all 
nights) and we met two ladies (I use the term loosely) one of whom was clearly 
falling down drunk and the other was obviously trying to help her friend walk it 
off.  Well, they wanted to pet the dogs so I said ok .... and the drunk one 
reached down and grabbed Snoopys ears and PULLED on them .... shouting ohhhhhhhh 
they are so soft ..... oh ... I am molesting your dog.  Fortunately Snoopy has 
clean, clear ears and he's not sensitive about them .... I mean, some dogs would 
have NAILED her .... and then ..... later in our walk ... her friend had to hold 
her back to keep her from rushing into the street but when we reached the 
sidewalk she did it AGAIN.  Clueless people attract other clueless people???

3)  I want to know why it is ok for Snoopy to climb up onto the couch, the 
reading chair, the bed, even the kitchen table but NOT the car .... nope, no 
way, needs a boost to go up 6 inches.

4)  Today on my morning run I encountered a dog on the trail.  I don't like to 
leave them because there is a waterway and animals and also cyclists and kids so 
I called her and she wasn't so sure she wanted to come but I convinced her and 
she came over and let me check her tags.  There are houses that back up to the 
trail (EXPENSIVE houses) so I found the right one and took her to the back gate 
and called out.  The guy came out and said oh, is she out again?  We've lost the 
key to the back gate so we can't let her in.  She was a maybe 40 lb shepard mix 
so I picked her up and offered to hoist her up over the gate.  Nope, he didn't 
think he could hold her up on his end.  OK, so we made our way down the 
fenceline and found a partially plugged hole and unplugged it and pushed her 
back through and plugged it back up and as he closed the hole back up he said to 
me .... if you want her you can have her.  Now there's a screening process for 
you.  SHEESH.  And then my running partner said "gee, seems like a nice dog, 
we're thinking about getting a dog, maybe I should take her."  My running 
partner AND her huband both work full time, 2 kids in school with activities so 
no one is ever home and they've never had any type of pet before.

No wonder I am clueless, everyone I meet is rubbing off on me!!!!
