Looking for a story / urban legend
« on: April 01, 2008, 10:33:38 PM »
It was supposed to be a true story of a VERY wealthy man who's success was due to his dog.

Whenever he did business with someone, if the dog didn't like the person he would refuse to do business. If the dog liked the person then that person was trustworthy.

Has anyone heard of this story?

From the picture that I remember, the guy was living before the 1940's.

Will I get Night Owl points for quitting but not as much for getting fired?
Will I still be a member of the Owl's Pals? I'd hate to turn in my card. It's got a real owl feather under the lamination and everything.

Night Owl: Oh, indeed. I quit many a job ...better than being fired. You can keep your card... in fact, you get double points for quitting!
