This isn’t my story to tell…but I will for your enjoyment.  While at home for Thanksgiving (Nashville) I spent a significant amount of time with my sister’s dog “Scout.”  Scout is a small dog…one of those poodle-mix breeds that doesn’t shed…for lack of better words a stuffed-animal come-to-life.  The little guy isn’t much for tricks but likes to follow you aroud.  In fact, he’ll chase you about anywhere just to see what’s next.  Well…Scout has gotten into the habit of jumping onto the toilet lid to watch Mom as she gets ready in the morning.  Saturday morning…he wasn’t so fortunate…for I had used the bathroom in the night and had left the lid up.  So Mom’s standing there putting her on make-up and here comes Scout.  He walks in just as proud as can be and leaped upon the toilet and SPLASH!  Ha!  That little dude was scrambling just to stay afloat.
