Ms Maneras

 

Dear Ms Maneras,

I came back home last night from work and on my doorstep were at least 20 wrapped presents with bow. While they smelled a bit rank, I opened the first few gifts and found only dog ....droppings. A note attached said to write you....What gives?

Patrick the Great

 

Dear Patrick the Great,

Ms Maneras kindly asks you to clean up after your dog or have him leashed. Your neighbors are tired of cleaning up your mess. Little children play in the streets and often don't wear shoes.

GET A GRIP. What gives is that idiots like you give the rest of us dog owners a bad name. Not everyone likes your Fido as much as you do. Even if he is the most loveable dog around, they still don't want to be cleaning up after him. That's your job.

So Bud, get with the program. Take a bag and clean up or put your dog on a leash when you go to work. Either that or don't bitch when you receive ten tons of presents - with bows of course - placed on your doorstep.

Ms M

 

Dear Ms Maneras,

I disagree with your stance on dogs and leashes. I moved to Mexico to be free from all the senseless laws in the US. Just look around. Mexicans allow their dogs to run around free. When in Rome, do as the Roman's do.

Paul

 

Dear Paul,

Ms Maneras understands your thoughts regarding useless laws and regulations. She politely suggests, however, you give health and neighbor relations a second thought. NO ONE; repeat NO ONE, likes to step in dog doo. I haven't met a neighbor yet who is happy with picking the mess because the owner is too lazy or inconsiderate to do it himself. If your dog is not leashed of fenced then you better be out with plastic bags daily if you want any respect at all.

Ms Maneras suggests that this is not Rome. Take your manners and healthier habits to the country you visit or adopt. Lead and teach by example.  

And by the way, what is your address? I have some gifts for you........

Dear Ms Maneras,

I was invited to a fundraising event last night by a very special man. The event took place in his hotel.

While the food was excellent and the crowd divine, I was shocked when the gentleman in question changed into the skimpiest of briefs and with a donkey puppet attached to his private parts. My God! One child was so frightened she ran away in horror.

Dear Shy Girl,

Ms Maneras was at the event and saw the gentleman in question. We all saw more of George than we ever expected......However, MS Maneras advice is to put the evening into perspective. George will do almost anything for charity.

My dear first dates are always the most difficult. From the size of it, I suggest you pursue your romance.
