I was in Wal-Mart buying a large bag of Purina for my dog Lilly and was in line to check out. A woman behind me asked if I had a dog ... Duh!
I was feeling a bit crabby, (having to step foot in Wal-Mart) so on impulse, I told her no, I was starting The Purina Diet again, although I probably shouldn't because Id ended up in the hospital last time, but that I'd lost 45 pounds before I awakened in an intensive care unit with tubes coming out of most of my orifices and IV's in both arms. Her eyes about bugged out of her head. I went on and on with the bogus diet story and she was totally buying it. I told her that it was an easy, inexpensive diet and that the way it works is to load your pockets or purse with Purina nuggets and simply eat one or two every time you feel hungry. The package said the food is nutritionally complete so I was going to try it again.
I have to mention here that practically everyone in the line was by now enthralled with my story, particularly a tall guy behind her.
Horrified, she asked if something in the dog food had poisoned me and was that why I ended up in the hospital.
I said no...I'd just been sitting in the yard when a car drove past. I almost caught it, too, before I got hit.
The tall guy behind her collapsed with laughter.
;o)

Didn't you all see the Sienfeld episode when Kramer ate dog food?
Crack me up.

Our puppy wouldn't eat Purina... he does like Eukanuba, and he will do tricks for the "organic doggie" cookies that I got him at Costco... but you wouldn't get me to eat them, it ALL smells bad to ME...

I suppose we should try that one... I was a little concerned about the recalls, We haven't bought food since just before then, and the puppy formulas didn't have the "bad stuff" in it at least not the our brand.
They sell Canidae at out local feed store. (In fact, living in the boonies, they sell just about EVERYkind of animal feed at OUR local feed store!!!)
It did seem a little too well organized for Mahonri to just come up with at a supermarket. :) Definitely belongs in the humor section...
c'mon ray... that all sounds EXACTLY like me don't you think?
Haven't you added Purina to your two year supply? I have it right next to my ammo.
