You're right Phil,  The dog sometimes comes on 7200, I've had the "pleasure" 
of listening to him make nice for a hot minute and then become a rump on 
ankles in a matter of seconds.  It is deliberate and it makes him feel like 
a real man. His goal is being seen as the smartest man on the air.  Much 
ground to cover there.
