A rainy day can mean 10 hours under a dryer for a puli, a Hungarian herding dog whose coat grows into tight cords that hang like fringe.

My Funny Valentine

“Are we on the same page here?” I asked. “Bob,” she said, “sometimes I think we’re in different libraries.”

Wise cracks are easy and easily misunderstood.
Let us keep it simple for now.

Sooner is better.   As soon as you can is best.
