My wife says I was quite well behaved -- for me, at least. * * Only one transgression. * I was getting tired of moms and dads peering suspiciously at me from around the corner of the house -- and when one was particularly so and particularly scowly *-- I offered her kids a puppy just to watch the parents' faces. * * Apparently,, * I'm not all that funny.
