Clyde's Distress

Clyde Clark In park Was boozy Real doozy Did pee On tree Broke law Cop saw Tied hands With bands To jail Sans bail Called spouse "You souse" Said she To he "Stay there Don't care" (Later before the judge) "Where ere you be let your water flow free", was Clyde's creative defense. Ha! Ha! grinned the judge! "Thirty days in the slammer for this offense!"

I might have left him in jail too, Bob! Got a great laugh from "Clyde's creative defense." Enjoyed your footles, my friend. Hugs, Carolyn

Hello Bob … what option did Clyde have. How many dogs get arrested for peeing on trees - thanks again Bob - Lindsay

Thanks Milton. During my time with the Air Force in Bermuda. We had in our squadron a "professional" sot. He was caught relieving himself in St Georges & the constables nabbed him. He told them "wherever you may be let your water flow free" I'll never forget that!
