Below you will find links to dates when new entries are added. The stories will not necessarily be in chronological
order, but rather as I remember them. I am dating them so that you can skip to new ones you haven't read since the last time you visited,
and so that you are more easily able to find something you found humorous to share with others.

Catch that Setter!
As I knocked on the door with the pizza box in my left hand... I could hear the dog barking from the far side of the house. The woman opened the door about three inches wide to try and hand out the money but keep the dog inside. The dog was jumping wildly at her back, she was using the hand holding the money to push the dog away. I was thinking to myself, "Do you really want me to turn the pizza box vertical and hand it through that narrow opening?" ??? After about 30 seconds of her wrestling with this dog, I finally said, "Will the dog run away?" She said, "No, but she'll jump - and she weighs 80 pounds". I said, "That's OK - let her out". She opened the door and a beautiful Irish Setter came gushing out through the doorway and sprang at my shoulders. I had braced myself, and am proud to say, I STILL have never dropped a pizza. The dog ran a few circles around my legs - The woman handed me the money and I handed her the food. I lowered my right hand (holding the dollar bills) toward my pocket, and **ZIP** ... the bills were ripped from my hand as the Irish Setter took off back into the house. ...NO JOKING!... The woman's eyes nearly popped out of her head and her mouth gaped open as she sucked in half of the air supply on the porch. She screamed into the house, (forgive me; I've forgotten the name of the dog), "SOMEBODY GRAB THE DOG - SHE STOLE THE PIZZA LADY'S MONEY... SOMEBODY STOP HER...." I laughed and said, "Oh sure - you TRAINED her to do that, didn't you!!?" She took me for serious at first, but finally smiled and said, "I wish I'd have thought of it!"
I did finally get my money and an appology. Kids an animals are always a great source of amusement!
