I’ve been there before, but I realized that I should take pictures and share the awe I feel when I go by.

Found at Shady Lane Antique Mall just south of Terre Haute, Indiana

          And? If my friend had a dog that I really liked and I wished I had a dog as a kid and someone showed me a picture of that dog, I’d really like seeing it. Have I been brainwashed by Big Dog?

              I’m not acting obtuse. I don’t see the difference between childhood nostalgia for a dog and childhood nostalgia for a toy. What’s the difference?

                  You mean other than all the movies, TV shows and even commercials that show people with loving dogs?

                  Yes, I did grow up with Lassie and Benji and I remember marketing campaigns for movies for both.

                    I can explain it to you, but I can’t understand it for you.

                    I have neither the time nor the crayons for this.
