Your Words Will Reveal You!

Decades ago, I was at a small gathering, and the host brought out a bottle of good wine.  He poured everyone a bit and one of those gathered (a fellow forestry student) remarked enthusiastically, "Boy, that hangs in your mouth!"  A country boy has a hard time hiding that!

Recently I heard a commentator on an entertainment show pull a similar stunt.  They were looking at a video of a flooded gymnasium in a prison, with the inmates splashing about and having a good time.  The young lady remarked, "Apparently the drain be plugged!"  At least it didn't happen during her interview, but she should remember that every show is an audition.

The best comes last.  Our friend Michele is a Schipperke breeder, and she is the driving force behind Midwest Schipperke Rescue.  There was a specialty and an all-breed show in St. Louis this last weekend and Michele ordered a cake to welcome the Schip people.  The cake decorator obviously is not a dog person, but now Michele has to come up with a funny cake idea for the next show. The bar is high! Here it is, with Michele's permission to share her photo.
