An old story, but worth repeating.  A woman sued a lawyer because the
lawyer's dog bit her.  They were in court, and the lawyer was in the witness
box.  The lawyer explained:  "My dog couldn't have bitten her.  My dog is
kept in a kennel.  Even inside the kennel, he is leashed and muzzled.  And
besides, I don't even HAVE a dog."

Regards,
Jason
