Babies are smelly, noisy and unpredictable - puppies are far superior.
The rental idea had actually occurred to me as a business opportunity a few
years ago.
Someone here tested a Ferrari against a puppy on one of the main Saturday
nightlife streets as a fun sociological exercise. Same ordinary looking lad.
The puppy had a hit rate many times higher than the car.
Tell this to every socially inept twenty-year-old male that you know.
I wish someone had told ME this forty years ago.
