I thought a story about a crazy Texan in a station wagon filled with dog feces would be the most fitting way to get back to regular posts on here.
I personally have a theory that over 80% of all human beings are certifiably nuts. Some hide it better than others. This woman in Texas was obviously not fooling anybody. I mean, if you can be considered the craziest person in northern Texas, you are obviously off the freaking radar.
So the story goes, Police in this little podunk town got a tip that a woman had a bunch of dogs in a station wagon on some old country road. They went to check it out and found the woman in a car filled with 20 adult dogs, 2 puppies, and the natural bi-products. Apparently the police officers could smell the urine from several feet away from the locked vehicle. In fact, they later found that the ammonia given off by the waste was strong enough to cause some serious health problems. The woman refused to cooperate and locked her doors. Now, if I were the police officer dealing with this brand of crazy, I would have asked politely and then left the woman to rot in dog poo. Apparently they persisted and she eventually gave in allowing the officers to take all of the dogs to the local animal shelter, which in northern Texas probably meant another station wagon attached to a slightly larger FEMA trailer.
I don't hate animals. I don't own one, but that's because I personally think that most are a waste of time and money. However, this woman is a perfect example of the crazy gene often found in obsessive animal lovers. Although PETA will inevitably condemn her to puppy hell, people who hoard dogs and people who stand outside the Westminster Dog Show dressed in white robes comparing the American Kennel Club to the Klu Klux Klan are cut from the same mold.
