A True StoryI was upon my lunch break, sitting upon a bench in the park, when a cute little doggy came up to me and said; "Excuse me sir, I'm sorry to disturb you like this, on the other hand would you permit me to have a bite of your sandwich. I am not a beggar by the agency of inclination, but circumstances beyond my rule have withered my pride. I am missing and confused. My owner appears to have abandoned me, and I have had nothing to eat for six days." "Dear friend," I said, "Please take what is left of this sandwich. I must get back to work; but if you would proper me here at five o'clock I would happily take you with me to my place of abode And, with your approval, I would gladly hold fast you and feed you each day. I think you would be happy there, and I'm confident you would bring me abundant joy." The dog agreed to suitable him at the bench, on the contrary when the man returned there was a note upon the bench. Written in completed schoolboy script, it read: "Sir, it is with a faculty of perception of shame that I must decline your generous proffer For the past six days I have perpetrated the same sham upon you, and you have generously given me your luncheon for which I am grateful. However, your lack of memory worries me and by what means it would affect my existence in your household. With all owed respect, sir, living by one's wits in the park suits me just fine."
