I pulled into the crowded parking lot at the local shopping center and rolled
down the car windows to make sure my Labrador Retriever Pup had fresh air.
She was stretched full-out on the back seat and I wanted to impress upon her
that she must remain there.
I walked to the curb backward, pointing my finger at the car and saying
emphatically, "Now you stay. Do you hear me? Stay!"
A few steps further, I called out, "Stay! Stay!"
The driver of a nearby car, a very pretty and desirable young blonde, gave me
a strange look and said, (this is going to hurt, but read on)
"Why don't you just put it in 'Park'?"
