Following a Stray Dog


A man was following a stray dog down the street one morning when a friend saw him and called out.

"What are you doing?" the friend asked.

"I'm following this stray dog," the man answered.

"Why?" the friend called.

"It is my job today."

"To follow a stray dog?" the friend asked.

"No, to see where he is going."

Excellent parable! More zen-like would be "To see where I am going" OR "To see where he will lead me." Anyway, here's what friends of mine were complaining about:

Stars

We wanted to watch the Milky
Way burn out in the night.

Instead, lights from the Razor-
Backs’ game flooded the sky.
