Magical Mystery Tour
by Mark SealAnything wild, funny, or interesting happen to you there when
you were younger? I borrowed a cat when I was about 10 years
old. We had mice in
Ireland, and I borrowed a friend's cat to put
in the house a while and kill the mice, but the cat hid behind the
curtain in terror basically the whole time. He never got any mice;
he was useless. I took the cat to bring it back. I was carrying it
up the road and this huge German shepherd ran out of a house and,
seeing this cat in my arms, leaped on me and bit me on the hand. I
just threw the cat into a bush. The cat did eventually get home,
but I lost the cat and had a cut on my hand. But I didn't tell
anybody. I told my parents that I cut my hand on a fence. The next
morning, the postman came to our house we were renting and said, "I
hear Joe Bresland's German shepherd bit you in the hand." My
parents then found out the whole story. That's what a small town it
is. You can't hide anything.
