I did say this: "Makes you think, doesn't it? I wonder how many people will be willing and happy to stand in line for hours just to get a glimpse of me when I die? I wonder what impact I will have made in people's lives." We didn't speak from that point on. I think he then realized who I was and it was better left alone. I'd like to think that he grew from our shared experience w/Creamsicle but according to what I've heard about him through the years, that isn't the case. He lacks the compassion gene. He may be a skilled vet; I'm not qualified to say but w/o compassion, you're not the vet for me.
