“He say's he doesn't know any Reid Laurence and to please not call here
again, his time is very valuable.” ‘click' 

Well I'll be. I suppose even Dan must forget people and things every now
and then. Hey, nobody's perfect you know what I mean. You've gotta 
learn to cut people some slack every now and then. What the heck, he's 
got more to do then talk on the phone, I'm sure. Anyway, I can always 
pass some quality time playing with my cute puppy, ‘Solomon'. He's a 
chubby little Miniature Pinscher who wouldn't hurt a fly. Now where did 
that little guy go? Ah, there he is... he's under the bed. “Hey boy, 
what're ya do'in under the bed? C'mon out an we'll have some fun. Here, 
take my hand...” Ouch! “You putz! Whad'ja bite me for?! Why you... I 
give you the best food, an a warm place in bed ta sleep and that's the 
way you repay me. Wow, man's best friend, huh. Friends like that an I 
don't need enemies. 

Well, everyone has there bad day I guess. Like I was thinking before,
you gotta cut people an even dogs some slack now an then, right? Hey, 
it's not a perfect world right. But it's a big world, that's for sure. 
You know what, I'll just go out an make some new friends, that's what 
I'll do. I'll meet some new people who'll know me and appreciate me. 
Now where did I put my car keys? “Solomon, you didn't drag my keys 
under the bed, did you?” 

“Grrr...”
