I was looking around the internet for a picture to go with today’s post, and came across this one from an animal adoption organization called Date A Dog. I had to post it.
I could (and probably should) stop right here, but I did have something to say today.
The current search for a “forever home” from a local pet rescue organization described the dog in question as “fully Vetted.”
In this case, the term did not refer to the sort of background check required for security clearances or some political appointments - it meant that the animal had been checked for health problems, that all its shots were up-to-date, and it had been neutered.
It occurred to me that the world would certainly be a different place if the same meaning were applied to politicians. Not necessarily better, but different – we probably do want our leaders to have cojones.
