Foul with mire, with a bristling beard, and hung with matted hair, it might well have belonged to one of those old savages who dwelt in the burrows on the hillsides. The light beneath him was reflected in his small, cunning eyes which peered fiercely to right and left through the darkness, like a crafty and savage animal who has heard the steps of the hunters.'

Not exactly, but hey.

I don't care what Chen's offering. $100 for the pair. Live ship. Customs trouble ahead.; 7/29/14, 9:30 PM

It's not a threatening face but a having good time frenzy face.

Pit bulls are more dignified anyway.; 7/30/14, 7:45 AM
