"Barbra Streisand/Bitch Attacks Flight Attendant."

You know, that's a funny headline at TMZ but...
Our sources tell us ... a female flight attendant [on some billionaire's private jet] noticed the dog [Barbra's 12-year-old Coton de Tulear ]and went over to pet her, but Sammie snapped, biting the woman's hand ... puncturing the skin and opening a wound that required stitches.
... don't just go over and pet somebody's dog.

(Virtually all the best-rated comments at TMZ make the same point: "Don't jst reach out and pet somebody dog," "You don't walk up to a dog that doesn't know you or that you are not familiar with and try to pet it," "You never pet a dog without the permission of the owner first," etc.)

Everyone know Coton de Tulears are a rich woman's pit bull.

"Does your dog bite?"

'Non, Monsieur."

[Dog then bites the questioner]

"I thought you said your dog doesn't bite."

"That's not my dog."

The double entendre is better than the story.

Dogs have been the new thing for a while in my apartment building so I often find myself sharing an elevator with a dog. I'll pet from behind if the situation seems to warrant it. I also own small dogs and What I don't understand are parents when I'm walking one who ask if it's okay for their kid to pet my dog. I always say no. Why take a chance with a kid?

Why does Streisand fly private jets? She must have a huge a carbon hoof print.

gspencer,

From the original Pink Panther, yes?

Strict liability in Wisconsin. If you do just walk up to a dog you don't know and it bites you, you will be compensated.

Wis. Stat. 174.02

Jake said...

I should qualify that...

The owner needs HO insurance that doesn't exclude liability for keeping animals. If so, JACKPOT!

Barbra Streisand's pussy once bit me. Different species, but teeth nonetheless.

I am Laslo.

Especially a spoiled rotten dog on a billionaire's private jet.

Bob Boyd said...

It was a rough ride.

I'm still waiting for Streisand to open up her mansions to the poor.

Like a good communist.

Barbara Streisand has an ugly dog that bites without warning.

Who would have guessed that?

In other news....I had to verify which pictures were sushi.
Sushi??
Really??

An Eastern Airlines stewardess defended herself from the charge of calling CAB member Betsy Bailey "a bitch" by claiming she'd actually said "witch."

Good times in air travel.

Meh. I would have just killed the dog. Then advised Babs that she might want to train her next dog to be more respectful of larger and more dangerous predators.

Well, the NYT headline being promoted at memeorandum is:

"Christie Ally Expected to Plead Guilty in George Washington Bridge Lane-Closing Case"

... which made me pause and think, for a moment, that the actress in Cheers who lost all that weight is involved in bridge-gate.

Headlines are garbage these days ... just written "soundbites" of propaganda.

I don't pet pets, of any species--in fact, I rarely pet humans without consent.

If they (pets) attack me nonetheless, my defense to their demise would be "Darwin", closely followed by "evolution".

In my town you would be fined for failing to control your dog. If your dog tends to bite it must be muzzled in public spaces or you pay.

The dog pays after the second instance.

My neighbor had to put down his poodle because it bit a jogger.

Lyle said...

I pet dogs that look at me and want some attention. Have never been bitten once.

From the article: "Barbra Streisand's female dog just got herself into serious trouble at 36,000 feet -- attacking a flight attendant aboard a billionaire's fancy private jet ... and it was so bad, the victim needed stitches."

"...bilionaire's fancy private jet..."

Hey, anthropocentric global warming is real and all you conservatives need to take steps immediately to curb it!!
