Teaching new dogs old tricks: how many times have you seen a person give you that fainted smile and in a few seconds, you detect what could only be described as a smell so bad as to make the Pope curse the Virgin Mary? You know it’s what he thinks is an exuberant release and seemingly ubiquitous odor the kind that makes teens seem proud and even exultantly giddy - well this to me is not something I can over-look anymore....I have learned through my many years this needs to be addressed in ways that I couldn't have imagined in my youth, I will no longer suffer in silence and hence-fourth vow to take action by either loudly demasking the insidious wind passer thereby shaming the smiling flatulent offender, or if the mood strikes me, asking him/her to "pull my finger"
