So.... this morning Melvin the dog (the handsome guy on the left) tore out of his house here in sunny Soutthern California as he does every morning around 5:30. Only thing was, the sprinklers went off last night turning our front walkway into a solid sheet of ice. Forty feet of hysterical scrambling later he was flat on his butt in the street wondring what the hell happened. He had a stupider expression on his face than George Bush had that time he was leaving a stage in China and walked into a wall. He didn't think it was funny but I couldn't stop laughing. Next time I opened the door for him to go out he just stood there, then turned and went to another door.
