"Stay!" ~OR~ Rule 5 Woodsterman Style


YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE A
"DOG PERSON" OR A BRUNETTE
TO TRULY APPRECIATE THIS STORY


“Stay!”
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! Stay!"


The driver of a nearby car, a pretty young blonde, 
gave me a strange look and said, 
(this is going to hurt read on)

"Why don't you just put it in 'Park'?"

Thank You Trailbee!

  2. Well, I think that's a good question. I'm blonde too.

  3. If one of 'em even hinted she was opening her car door, just see how fast I could jam into PARK.
    Now for the other side of story -- it'd be like a dog chasing cars; I'm so old, what would I do with if I caught it?

  4. I don't get it. Why did the storyteller name the dog Stay?

  5. Because a Mercedes is a German car and will only follow orders.

  10. Bwahahaha! Good one, Odie. Except most of the time they're stepping on my oxygen tube and whispering in my ear, "Die, you ol' sumbitch. Die!"

  12. I gotta tell you,Odie... There's gonna be an overflow crowd and lots of wailing and gnashing of teeth at my funeral. The crowd's gonna be there to make damn sure I'm dead and the cryings gonna come when everybody learns I didn't leave nobody nothing!

Put it here ... I can't wait to read it. I have the Captcha turned OFF but blogger insists it be there. You should be able to bypass it.
