A Dialog With Houdini

Houdini sits with his Human, Boss, in the Internet Place. It’s an odd location, this Internet Place, because the perception of it is so very... well, personal isn’t quite the word, unless one accepts that there are Two-legged Persons and Four-legged Persons. Houdini’s Internet Place looks rather like a big pasture, with well-marked paths going hither and yon. Some of the paths wind into and around copses of trees, or alongside streams. Houdini likes the Internet Place because somehow, he always gets to sit right next to Boss when it’s sitting time.

( Houdini: Boss, what are you sad about? )

Boss: Ah, Houdini. Welcome to the six million dog biscuit question.
