He said, "Oh, I am very > sorry. I thought you said 'senile dog.'" This reminds me of my "dogs 'n wheelchairs" miscommunication. A couple of years ago I was late for lunch because I had been in the Student Support Services office seeing one of my advisees. When I got to the cafeteria and a friend asked me where I had been, I told her and then started describing the Support Services building since I'd found it an interesting place. I said, "It was full of dogs and wheelchairs." Wide-eyed, she responded, "Why were the dogs in wheelchairs??" --Natalie (maynor[AT SYMBOL GOES HERE]ra.msstate.edu)
