He likes to run in the middle of the street like a crazy dog chasing cars- drivers be damned. My ex almost ran over him because he was not watching where he was going and was obivious to the traffic around him.<br /><br />I asked her why she did not just run over him? It's not like he is someone's loved pet or anything. She did not think that was funny. <br /><br />Now you know why she is my ex.Peter V.
