This reminds me of being at a friend's place while her great dane was being introduced to her sister's new 6 week old chihuahua puppy. The puppy was tiny, maybe 3 inches long at the most, and was hunting all around the great dane, who was snoozing, looking for where the dog it could smell was. It eventually got to the dane's nose, then got this look on it's face like 'hang on...' and started baciking up. Eventually it got far away enough to see that the big piece of furniture it had been hunting around was actually a dog and the puppy just flipped out.
The funniest thing is that the great dane looked up at that point, looked at the tiny puppy and was obviously thinking 'ohhh, it's a dog!!'
Why treat life as a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving in an attractive & well-preserved body? Get there by skidding in sideways, a glass of wine in one hand, chocolate in the other, body totally worn out, screaming WOOHOO! What a ride!
