That’s true love.

There goes his getaway.

There goes Marvin the Munchkin’s dream of being a glamorous spy.

Someone’s bound to try to sink a putt….

No, but he would like to lose you.

Maybe she planted that flag like Sir Edmund Hillary.

When I was stationed in Japan, my wife and I frequently visited Tokyo and used the subway. The first problem was that the doors were less than 6 feet tall and we aren’t. After banging our heads the first couple of times we learned to duck.

We would ride along, straphanging and hold a conversation over the heads of several Tokyo residents between us.

Good for her. She has found the solution to an ongoing problem.

Escape plans thwarted again.

But Harold is a good target for the bus.

Harold will no longer exit the crowded subway with a smile on his face.

He’s built more like a buoy

And she figured this was less humiliating than a leash.

Someone to look up to!

I was riding the streetcar with my grandmother. When she got off the car by the rear door, the conductor didn’t see me and closed the door on my leg. In my mind’s eye I can see my grandmother running for blocks, holding me up by my shoulders, but it couldn’t have been more than a few steps before all the passengers started yelling “the little girl is stuck”. I was in my late 20s before I would risk getting off the back door of a bus or streetcar again.

Plus it will really help when he’s riding his bike over a hill

Yeah yeah. I get it. I’m so embarrassed, though.

Wouldn’t a leash work better?

My FYOB is lower than racks at Value Village, so it becomes a pattern search to find her

My wife is vertically challenged. Some years ago I suggested her wearing a bathroom plunger with a chin strap and a pennant flying. She disagreed.

should just get one a them retractable leashes….

Maybe you should chip him.

Nose to nose his toes are in it, Toes to toes his nose is in it. Burma-Shave.

Is that SO?

Just put a leash on him.

Faux pas appear to be par for her
