In the spirit of Proverbs 10:19, our newest regular feature will be a series of posts of 100 words — or fewer. Comments under ten words!

They say every dog has his day and mine has been a good one; I have drunk from the porcelain bowl. I have chased squirrels and terrified the elderly. I’ve escaped from the backyard more times than I can count, and fathered more children than anyone could count. I have left my mark all over this neighborhood, the only world I have ever known, and I am ready for the next one. Throw the ball (or bone) through the veil, and I will follow fearlessly, be it a treat or rolled-up newspaper that awaits me on the other side.

–DFS, for Wallace P. MacSweet
