OFF LEASH: On regrettable behavior (from the archives)
"Off Leash" is an occasional column by Fiddler.
All of us do things we’re not proud of. Some of us lie. Some of us cheat. Some of us declare war on another country for no good reason. Etc., etc.
I’m no exception. So here’s my admission: When the people aren’t looking, I sneak upstairs and eat the cats' food. I know I shouldn’t: it’s their food. Heck, I’m not even supposed to be upstairs. But the illicit thrill of wolfing down an entire bowl of Science Diet is simply too wonderful for words. Now that I’ve owned up to my shortcomings, I feel better. And, in the future, I promise to, you know, do my level best to -- um -- resist temptation ... and so forth.
