Dog swept up, killed by NYC street sweeping truck

Is it wrong that I enjoyede this story? I just visualize some p-whipped Woody Allen type walking the dogs and BLAMMO! Try explaining that to his S/O.

The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first.

I contend that for a nation to try to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle.

Umm, keep your dogs outta the street?  :dunno:

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free. "

"I don't believe in a government that protects us from ourselves."

You can go through life being scared of the possible, or you can have a little fun and tease the inevitable.

Give a man venison, he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to hunt Blacktail, he'll be frustrated for life!

How could he not have seen the thing coming and pulled the leash, and therefor the dog out of the way? Sounds like a I'm gonna sue kinda scam, to me.
Hug your kids, pray for a soldier, and don't sweat the small stuff.
