Date Posted: Thursday, March 13, 08:06:01pm In reply to: Gus 's message, "Mans Best Friend" on Thursday, March 13, 11:03:24am Our neighbour has a dog, of sorts, he used to be known as “Shortround”. Not because of any limitations on his physical dimensions, as it were, but rather because, shall we say, his intellectual ammunition locker was somewhat inadequately stowed. This drawback led to an argument with an inanimate object, which he did not recognise as being such, which argument led to severe damage to, and eventual removal of, his primary aft support stanchion, port side (back leg). This led to him being re-christened “Tripod”. A change which did not seem to bother him, either the rebuild or the re-naming. It did however have one major drawback. On passing trees, lampposts and such, he naturally did what dogs naturally do. Unfortunately, being a creature of habit, he lifted the leg he habitually lifted, transferring his weight to his to his, now, non-existent port – side support structure. The results were predictable and inevitable but unfortunately completely incomprehensible to the individual concerned. I have tried endlessly to explain the principles of stability, stowage, angle of repose and so forth, all to no avail. Blank looks are an exaggeration. Any advice from knowledgeable dog appreciators would be greatly appreciated. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] |
