This is an actual happening from a  'retired' friend

in Texas .      Yesterday I was at my local  Wal-Mart buying a large bag

of Purina dog chow for my loyal pet,  Bisquit, the Wonder

Dog and was in the checkout line when  woman behind me asked

if I had a dog.

What did she think I had, an  elephant?  So since I'm

retired and have little to do, on impulse  I told her that

no, I didn't have a dog, I was starting  the Purina Diet

again.  I added that I probably  shouldn't, because I

ended up in the hospital last time, but  that I'd lost

50 pounds before I awakened in an  intensive care ward with

tubes coming out o f most of my orifices  and IVs in both

arms.

I told her that it was essentially a  perfect diet and that

the way that it works is to load your  pants pockets with

Purina nuggets and simply eat one or two  every time you

feel hungry.  The food is  nutritionally complete so it

works well and I was going to try it  again.  (I have to

mention here that practically everyone in  line was now

enthralled with my  story.)

Horrified, she asked if I ended up in  intensive care

because the dog food poisoned me.  I  told her no, I stepped

off a curb to sniff an Irish Setter's ass  and a car hit

us both.
