Never Fails

[Samantha Puppy]

Or pets who act like they're at death's door until you walk into the vet's office and then they're fine.

OR babies that won't stop moving so that it feels like you have a tap-dancing octopus in your belly until someone places their hand on your stomach to feel the movement and they stop cold.

Pets and kids and inanimate objects. Punks, the lot of them.

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

When I smoked....the waiter/bus/train....always came when I had just lit a cigarette....

I was just thinking of this example the other day. I don't remember what we were waiting for, but I remember wishing one of us smoked because then we could light up and whatever it was we were waiting for would happen.

It just started acting up again, so they're not so infallible after all.
