....................A TRUE STORY...I THINK IS RELEVANT.....................
.....Years ago I was part of a revue, working out of Athens, Ga. We all shared a house in this small town, and the front door was always open, Therefore our many friends inthe town would always walk in without knocking.
....One day I was sitting in a chair in the front room, dozing, and sleeping. We had a minature french poodle, we called Fifi, who was sleeping across the door frame a few feet from me. If somebody would have come in the door, she could have been injured. Now if it wasn't for the fact that I was in partly concious state, I wouldn't have did what I did next:
....I looked over at Fifi, I called out, "Fifi," she looked up, I said, "move over," she stood up, move a foot over, out of harms way. and lay back down. I was about to resume my nap, when it hit me. I went,"
what the hell
.... I just comunicated with a dog! She was not trained. and I made no gestures. She simply picked up my thoughts.
