Recently, I called my brother to chat. We shot the bull about what was new and what we were planning to get our folks for Christmas. During our conversation, I let him know that my wife and I were considering getting a dog and I joked that he probably wouldn't be to happy -- the poor kid is terribly allergic to dogs and cats. He then asked me what breed I had in mind. I told him we were thinking about stopping by the shelter to pick of a Wheaton Lung Plugger.
He howled with laughter and after we hung up, what ensued was a flurry of text messages, each of us trying to outdo the other with a breed more likely to cause an allergic reaction. This is our list:
- Scottish Wheezer
- Lhasa Achu
- Stuffed Nosed Collie
- Sneazing Walker Coon Hound
- Schnneagle
- Cocker Choo
- Miniature Sinus Pincher
- Long Haired Albuterol
...and my favorite...
Ok. I realize that this may seem corny and a bit childish. The truth is I simply don't care. At the time it struck me so funny that people at the office thought I was losing my mind as I tried to contain body-shaking giggles.
Have any good suggestions for our list?
