    I'm beginning to wonder if certain three letter agencies are
    really devoting enough satelight time to Spike's back shed.

    I'm joking, I hope. Maybe Spike's watching them.

    Having now type the word spike thrice I'm getting some
    strange associations with mexican bandits whose mothers
    chose to name them after historic phenomenon.

    I have a friend who named her dog after a State politician she
    quite admired. She met the pollie one day but their amiable
    chat came to a halt when she mentioned the dog.
