WHO ARE YOU?
If you can understand when your loved ones are too busy to give you any time,
If you can take criticism and blame without resentment,
If you can conquer tension without medical help,
If you can relax without alcohol,
If you can sleep without the aid of drugs,
Then you are probably the family dog
And you thought I was going to get all spiritual!
Handle every stressful situation like a dog.
If you can't eat it or play with it, pee on it and walk away.

This is deep stuff. I will have to urinate...I mean ruminate on it for a bit to appreciate exactly what it means.

@jack-dodds, do Canadians ruminate to mark their territory?

@jkuvakas We only publicly "mark" up in the wilds of the Northwest Territories, in the capital of Yellowknife., where yellow streams are considered sacred. Legend has it that this ritual was formally approved by Hereditary Chief Rutting Elk who, after a long toke on his peace pipe, wisely pontificated "Hey braves...if peeing outdoors is good for the moose then it's gotta be good for youse."

All the more reasons to love a dog.

@bob-jackman Thanks Bob but I'm just the messenger; the credit goes to sage Chief Rutting Elk. Though back in the day many of the white fur traders say the tales of his conquests were nothing but a load of moose muffins, the truth is they were jealous of his prowess. Unlike their meagre existence checking traps for beaver, slogging through the cruel Canadian winters, Rutting Elk scored most of his upstairs at the local saloon, energized by firewater.
