I heard of a woman today who got attacked by a dog, climbed a
telephone pole, fell out of a tree, was yelled at by a police officer on a 911 call, got patched in to the State Police in New York, was almost arrested and sent to jail, trespassed on several people's property, hurtled fences and hedges in a mad dash through a neighborhood, and even convinced a
former mayor of our town to call in some favors to the local power company.
