MAN'S BEST FRIEND
"Her dog got into her purse and ate all her
personal checks," Banfield said. The woman reportedly told police she
had no choice but to take funds from her former husband's account.
A Wisconsin teenager using a classic excuse for evading schoolwork missed a class trip to Peru despite his tale being true: The dog ate his passport.

I had a really funny comment scribbled out, but before I could type it in, my dog came by and, well, you know.

They should have made her sort through her dog's $h!t in the backyard to provide proof.

Her dog made her steal her ex's money?
Sounds right.

I guess it never occurred to her to order new checks or use a counter check. Maybe the dog ate the money that was supposed to go into her account also.

My dog forced me to eat Ben & Jerry's Chunky Monkey. Honest, I didn't want to do it, but I had no choice.

" My dog ate the Rose billing records. " ( Sure, Hillary. That sounds plausible. )
