>>        So Ro and I were sitting in the doctor's office. She was stowed 
>> under my seat and licking one of her paws.
>>
>> The little boy sitting across from us is watching her and says,
>>    "mommy, the dog's tongue is blue!"
>>    The mother looks up from her magazine and says,
>>    "It's not blue, it's pink. Her lips are black and her tongue is pink, 
>> honey." and goes back to reading her magazine.
>>
>> But the boy is insistent and he persists. The mother, realizing she's not 
>> winning, changes the subject.
>>
>> I go  to the bathroom and return to my seat.
>>
>> The little boy says,
>>    "Mommy, look at her tongue, it's got blue on it, really!"
>>
>> By this time Mom is tired of his imaginative game but she looks.
>>
>> Finally, I cut in,
>>    "He's right, you know, her tongue has birth marks on it."
>>    "Are they bluish black?" she asks.
>>    "yes, that's what I'm told."
>>
>> Vindicated, the little boy says,
>>    "See, I told you her tongue was blue."
>> I couldn't help laughing.
>> Best,
>> Annie and Ro with the blue tongue
