Met him, Steve Waugh and Tom Moody in a pub once (when Waugh hadn't yet been dismissed in a test in England IIRC) before he was Aussie captain. All I can say is, Waugh and Moody were two genuinely nice people and great ambassadors for the game and Australia.
Dean Jones was there too.

Do you think they train attack dogs as sniffers, so they can eliminate the threat, once identified? 
I am not wrong. I am just different!

Although I prefer cats (they are generally brighter than dogs) I like dogs - and dogs like me. Most of the time I can get them to obey me, even if they won't obey their owner!

That's funny and probably really does indicate something about you.
Probably makes sense that your a software dev too. You know how to tell things/animals what to do so they actually do it.

That only works when you use your own software.
Once in the hands of the unwashed masses, they don't even do what they, themselves, want to do. Makes me dream, fondly, of a million monkeys on a million . . . .

So when you were tested, you went for the CAT scan over the lab test?

And the cat which won't obey you is smarter how?
If you can't laugh at yourself - ask me and I will do it for you.

That's not much to brag about. Now, if you could get cats to obey most of the time...
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

I read that and rent my clothes as a sign of mourning. "That's Not Unusual" (1965). When he says "I'm Coming Home" (1975) he likes to know where it is.

The doctor diagnosed me with a Tom Jones complex.
I asked him if that happened a lot.
Apparently, it's not unusual.

No, that was Benedict Cumberbatch. Humperdinck (the original) was a classical composer, and Gerry was a crooner.
