Knock Knock
My doorbell rang. The young fellow with clipboard outside said he was “From the gas company and wanted to make sure you were getting your discount” and that “all you need is to show a copy of your bill.” Of course, the pup was barking loudly (he has a very deep bark), and naturally, being a Bostonian, the first thing I thought was, “BOSTON STRANGLER!” As if I would let him in! It would be fun to open the door a bit so the pup could stick his giant head out, but it’s not worth it.
only in H’wood could they make him into Stony Curtis (though he did do a great job.)
PS. I did call the gas co and they said people were going door to door and would provide ID “if asked.” Who on earth would open a door to a young kid in a t-shirt? No uniform? That’s crazy.

Must have been the Darwin Society, out thinning the herd.
