Get a dog!

I receive a short, fictional story in my in-box each day. Today's tickled me, and I thought I'd share it with you. If you'd like to sign up to receive a short story each day, here's the link: http://www.everydayfiction.com/

Every Day Fiction - Story of the day
LOVE UNLEASHED • by Stephen D. Rogers

Since everybody always told me that walking a dog would be a good way to meet women, I finally broke down and purchased one.

The jogger she nipped was a woman.

So was the first officer who responded to the jogger’s cry for help, the doctor who stopped to assist, and the crone who waved an umbrella at me while mumbling obscenities until the ambulance arrived.

My lawyer was a woman, as was the judge who decided in the jogger’s favor.

Everybody was right. Walking my dog, I met lots of women.

From now on I think I’ll stick to the personals.
