Heh, I remember a travelling salesman showing up about 35 years ago. My dad and I were out in the shop trying to get our old piece of shit JD 2010 tractor running and it wasn't going well. It was July and about 110 degrees under that tin roof, we were both dripping with sweat and mightily pissed off. Some asshole pulls up and the dogs go nuts, clamoring about his car. He rolls his window down just enough that one of the Catahoulas or Yellow Curs can't get their snout in and get at him and yells at us. The old man comes out, bleeding pretty well from barking a knuckle on the frame of that piece of shit John Deere when a nut finally broke, and in my learned estimation in a highly pissed off mood. The guy yells are these dogs safe for me to get out? Pop asks him what do you want, and he says he wants to talk to us about dictionaries or some shit. Sure, come on out, Pop says. He pops the door and jumps out, and ol' Buck, the alpha male of our dogs, bites him right in the ass. He screams and leaps back in the car, yelling I thought you said to come on out. My old man said, "I did, but I never promised you wouldn't get your ass bit. Now get the fuck out of here."
