We do not know the point of running the story of
some louse who sold his step-daughter's beagle to a bar owner to get drunk -- or rather "quenching his thirst for beer," as Al Reut must euphemize it. (The bar owner showed humanity: he returned the dog to the girl). The 2.5 rating among 689 Web surfers shows they might not get the point either. Why waste so much bandwidth on this maudlin discomforting junk?
