I <3 DAVE BARRY. His columns are always interesting!
"If we're visiting someone's home, and I suddenly experience a sensation of humid warmth, and I look down and see that my right arm has disappeared up to the elbow inside the mouth of a dog the size of a medium horse, I am not alarmed. I know that this is simply how a large, friendly dog says: ``Greetings! You have a pleasing salty taste!''"
I especially love this line,
"My wife is less impressed. She fails to see the appeal of an animal that appears to be less intelligent than its own parasites."
On a dog's vigilance,
"One time, on a movie set, I watched a small dog walk past a line of six metal light stands. When the dog came to the sixth light stand -- which was EXACTLY the same as the other five light stands -- the dog stopped and began barking furiously at it. Clearly the dog had detected some hostile intent in this particular light stand, something that we humans, with our inferior senses, were not aware of. We humans were thinking: ''What's WRONG with that dog?'' Whereas the light stand was thinking: ``Whew! That was close!''"
you know you LOVE me (:
