Dog Eats Inauguration Ticket

SACRAMENTO, CA - It's the ultimate "bad dog" story.

Jill Amaker spent weeks trying to get a ticket to the Barack Obama inauguration. When she finally did, it was overnighted to her home, right through the mail slot.

Webster, a Rhodesian ridgeback puppy took it from there.

"I came home to shreds of paper all over the house. When I finally realized what it was, I couldn't believe it," said Amaker.

Amaker and her daughter have spent hours trying to put the torn ticket with a purple border back together like a puzzle. Amaker still plans to make the trip.

"I don't know if this will fly at the front gates in Washington," she said.

Being a puppy and all, Webster likes to chew stuff. He recently chewed up a video of "Marley and Me."

4. She has a new puppy and didn't put a basket under the mail slot??? (Wow! STUPID!)

:shrug:

"Puppy-proofing" a home is akin to "child-proofing" a home ... and failure to do is is just plain fucking dumb.

5. Yes, far to stupid to be getting sent MY ticket...

You know?

Maybe she wasn't stupid, just overworked and stretched too thin.

Maybe she's a head injury survivor?

Maybe her husband said he'd put one up that morning before work?


i just can't reach that conclusion right off the bat.
