Can't We All Just Get Along?


Girlsie here - as in Boysie and Girlsie, and we belong to Mrs. Brooke Astor, so don't you forget it. Now we live up in Vermont on a farm, far away from all that fighting over our Mommy's will. It was all Boysie's fault for piddling on the couch when he got excited. Someone told somebody else, and all of a sudden people said our mistress was living in a filthy house. Maybe they'll ask you to testify, Boysie, and you can tell them the truth.

"Woof."

Easy for you to say, but Mr. Tony was always nice to us, and so was his wife, Mrs. Charlene. She gave us treats. Of course one time somebody, who shall be nameless, locked us in the dining room. Tell that to the judge, Boysie.

"Woof, woof." 

You're such a busybody, always sniffing people. Me, I just lounge, though I do miss our Mommy. She was so good. But the butler comes to see us, Mr. Christopher. He's going to testify, at least according to the Daily News. Unlike yourself, I actually read the newspaper, as opposed to doing you-know-what there. Some days they deserve it. 

Mrs. A used to say the best thing about the New York Times was that it came in a blue plastic bag, useful for picking up - ummm----I'm not going to say it, but you can sure smell it. 

"Aaarf!"

York Up a Milk Bone



Pardon me while I york up a Milk Bone. You Beeeatches ain't seen nothing like what I've been through at the offices of Horowitz and Friehling, accountants to Mr. Bernard Madoff. I've been hole up in that freaking office for almost nine years with my master, Mr. Depressed Nerdle I call him, but he's really David Friehling, accountant extraordinaire, good-looking guy, and I'm guessing here, all-around crook.

He and I, we've gotten close, even though when he first rescued me from the Rockland County Shelter I didn't realize my rival would be - ugh - a human, okay not totally human, but one Bernard Madoff, the Bernster, the Bernbag, the Bernboob, all of the above according to old Dave.  

Let me just say, I know things, boy do I ever, and I'm gonna spill my guts at the first opportunity. Vanity Fair, call me. My master is even more depressed than ever. We need to get it all out there - for a price!
