[nagdu] Harness Signs Real and Imagined

[Larry D. Keeler]

Yah, that's great!  I don't always want to educate everyone all of the time 
iether!  For example, while half asleep on a bus, listening to music, folks 
will yell questions at you and get rather annoyed when you don't answer! 
Like they can't see you relaxing and enjoying you're tunes!  They think that 
you're rude!  Holly the labradoodle has also been suspected of being a biter 
even though she is the farthest thing from a biter you ever saw!  Pez, my 
little pet, is a little fluffy thing and kids have asked that question while 
trying to poke him in the eye or pull his ear.  When he growls they always 
ask about the biting and I told one little kid who I was really tired of, 
"I don't know, but he hasn't had lunch yet".
