  1. !0. What? Dead battery?

    9. A new act you can exploit for profit? Houdini Dog!

    8. At least she didn't poke her eye out!

    7. That's happened to me. I was tempted to break a window, but just smashed the crappy lock with a rock. How the hell do three people lock themselves out?

    6. Max? That's the Grinch's dog! No wonder trouble was brewing!

    5. How convenient!

    4. Recently I broke a car key off in the trunk lock, and mom had to drive %0 miles with key!

    3. Where do you want him to poop, outside? Where do you poop? I thought so!

    2. I've done that before.

    1. That was a close one! I'm happy you were spared.

  2. On #7: the lock started catching and locking when the door was opened (it's a lock on the door knob, not a deadbolt) and all three of us had run out to grab the dog and shut the door behind us to keep the other dog from running out too.

  3. LOL Sounds like a Chevy Chase movie. Well, 9 out of 10 isn't bad (you missed being poisoned at McDonald's). Can't wait to hear about the 10-hour drive.

  4. I can wait, Mr. Charleston, I can wait...
