OMG

OMG

Walking the dogs on St. Patrick’s day in Savannah, I met a husband and wife, mid 40s, with four leaf clover antenas bouncing on their heads.  The man knelt down and said “Aw, I’ve got to pet the aussie!”  He pets Rufus, my Australian shepherd miniature.
Three-sheets-to-the-wind the man says,  “I used to have an Australian [...]
