It's been a wild week for the news hounds, with a couple of major expeditions.
We also had a share of mishaps and near catastrophes. Any word with cat in it must be bad.
The trouble started when we were cruising along the highway and the boss said: 'Pull your head in, I'm going to wind up the window”.
Being an obedient pooch and having my ears flapping in the breeze I thought he said: 'Stick your head further out the window” and consequently I got my neck stuck as the glass rolled up. He figured out there was something wrong when my legs starting twitching and I was doing 50 miles per hour but my feet weren't touching the ground.
Luckily Mr Nissan has a safety feature built in, so that stupid dogs don't get decapitated for failing to follow instructions. Any hint of a power window moving now, and I'm outta there!"
The next near disaster was also involving failure to follow basic instructions.
I was leaning over the side of the boat, watching a fish being brought aboard, when the boss said: "Get back in the cabin”.
I mistook this for: 'Eat that fish immediately”.
They sound the same to a hungry Labrador.|
This resulted in me nearly getting hooked on a lure, engulfed in a landing net, and chopped for sashimi.
Lesson learned: Wait till the fish is filleted before trying to take a taste.
