OFF LEASH: On feelings
"Off Leash" is an occasional column by Fiddler. Past columns can be found here.
Feelings, someone once said, are not logical. If someone hasn't said that, someone should, because it's very true.
Note, for example, my extreme fondness for the fluffy white dog down the street. Whenever I see the fluffy white dog, I whine insistently, begging to get closer. Why? This dog shows no particular interest in me. Or take my passionate hatred of skateboards. If someone rides past our house on a skateboard, I act as if I want to tear the skateboarder limb from limb. Why? The skateboarder means me no harm.
I could continue, citing my hatred of garbage men or how I love to drink stagnant rainwater, but I think my point has been made. I see no reason to continue. Besides, I don't feel like it.
