Dogs: Avoid Exploding Toilets!

I'm writing this because I saw an item in the news from Washington DC (it happened in a Federal Building) about a lady who was injured due to an exploding toilet. I'm sure most of you, when you see that sentence will think, "was there a terrorist attack at one of the government buildings?" The answer is, no there was not. It turns out that it was just one disgruntled toilet that caused the problem. This is why dogs do not use toilets. Sure, you can get a cat to use one, but we dogs have more sense. There is no way that we are going to be shot across the room by an unhappy toilet. There was an excuse about water pressure, and the people in the building have been warned not to use the facilities until they are checked out. I suppose that means that either the humans are using hydrants like us dogs or they are lining up at a nearby gas station. I hope they are using the nearby gas stations because those hydrants are for dogs. We mark them as our territory and we expect them to stay our territory. The humans probably wouldn't even bother to sniff the hydrant first to see if it has been marked or not. Humans are terribly impolite about such things. Anyway, I hope that there are no more toilet problems in Washington DC. Judging from the amount of excrement coming from the politicians, I'm surprised the toilets haven't fought back sooner.

My Conclusion

I usually check out the news on aol.com everyday, and one thing that I find interesting is that humans are allowed to comment on the news stories. Many of the comments mention "Obama types", and usually those comments are not favorable. For example, I read one about bed bugs, and several comments said that bed bugs were caused by "Obama types". Of course, this dog had to do some thinking to understand the comment, but since I am a very intelligent dog, I put all the facts together to form my conclusion. First of all, Mr. Obama is the President so he is in politics. He also tends to wear suits. Therefore, I came to the conclusion that if you own a hotel, and don't want bed bugs, do not allow the room to be rented to Congressmen and Senators because politicians must be what the comments mean by "Obama types". I've even heard plenty of the humans talk about how politicians are sleazy types so I think this dog has come to the right conclusion--as always. I think it would be wise not to let corporate executives have a room also--they tend to wear suits and hang out with the politicians.

To be fair, the article didn't say that any particular group was at fault for bed bugs which makes me wonder--do some people who comment even read what they are commenting on? Perhaps they just have too much time on their paws. I would suggest they do something useful with their time like learn to read. It would make their comments sound more intelligent. Of course, with humans making comments, you can only get so much intelligence--it isn't like they are dogs.
