Have you ever been recognized IRL as a DUer when you weren't expecting it?
I had to give a presentation to a government agency today. I was preparing to set up my Keynote (the Mac version of Powerpoint, only better) and this picture of our dog, Big, came on the projection screen as it is my Desktop.



From the audience I heard a woman say "Good doggie! Fetch the stick."

I'm not sure what my body language gave away, but I know I gave *some* reaction. I never saw who said it, and I never reacted.

But it was spooky, because of the thread linked below.

1. It could be a coincidence.
That seems to me that that would be a fairly common reaction to that picture.

6. "Speak softly and carry a big stick."
Or a flying Welenda, balancing on the high wire.

I don't think you need to worry. That is one funny doggy with very clean teeth, I would imagine.

:)
