A Headline

"Bob Barker is 'delighted' that spay-neuter phrase will stay"

This makes me glad for two reasons:

1) Bob Barker is a very old man, so even though he might still be a jerk, I'm happy that he's happy and

2) my dad will get to continue to use his catchphrase, "Help control the pet population--run over a dog today."

    Why do we think Bob Barker is a jerk? I have never heard such a thing.

    Hmmm, I didn't know that. I dislike his support of the mandatory spay/neuter laws in CA but I was pretty sure that wasn't what cause you to put him at jerk status.

    I would imagine your Dad doesn't advocate the actual running over of dogs, does he? Perhaps it is a way to lampoon the sanctimoniousness of Bob Barker.

    To my knowledge, my father has never actually run over a dog as a means of population control, no.
