Maybe that dog heard what my co-worker likes to say. He drives a big Hemi Dodge, and every time I start up my little Neon in the morning, he puts his hand up to his ear and says he's listening for the squirrels in my engine....

Yes, Annie, you just keep navigating and maybe you'll stay out of trouble.

I saw this story on the news last week and the dog is fine. :)

The car, however, required extensive rewiring and several new hoses.

Yep, car repairs don't come cheap do they? I'm sure the dog learned a good lesson.

He learned how to hotwire a car?

It looks like a pit bull. Did the owner go to the mechanic or the veterinarian?

LOL!

My old dog Sandy hopped into the driver's seat to wait for me in the liquor store. As I was walking back out to the car, I heard a woman say to her companion, "OK, that's it! When I see a dog driving, it's time to give up drinking!"

DNA test absolves Lizard Man of attack

DNA testing has shown an attack on a family van some blamed on the legendary Lizard Man appears to have been actually done by a domestic dog.

Something chewed up the front fender of Bob and Dixie Rawson’s van in February. Bite marks were left on the wheel wells, and blood was found on the vehicle.

A veterinary lab in California tested the blood and found it came from a dog, The (Sumter) Item reported.

But Bob Rawson isn’t sure, saying it would have to be one big dog.

Lee County Sheriff E.J. Melvin isn’t convinced, either. He thinks it was a coyote or wolf.


Once again its Dog v. Car.

Lizard Man became a phenomenon in the area 20 years ago when people began reporting a tall, big-eyed swamp creature. Authorities never figured out exactly what prompted the sightings.

Suitguy is not bitter.

feels he represents the many educated and rational onlookers who believe that the hysterical denouncement of lay scepticism is both unwarranted and counter-productive

The problem, then, is that such calls do not address an opposition audience so much as they signal virtue. They talk past those who need convincing. They ignore actual facts and counterargument. And they are irreparably smug.
