Pollack's Prank

JOURNALING: Every time I see that painting, I'm reminded of the night back in the 30's when my friend Jack got me involved in a prank at the local English Pointer dog club. You see, they were having their annual show and there were a lot of dogs kenneled at the club. Jack comes over to my house, knocks on my bedroom window, and says, "Ya wanna have some fun?" (Yeah, he was drunk). Well, he was several years older than me and I thought he was just about the neatest thing going, so, of course, I said, "Sure!" Next thing I know, we're in the dog club parking lot. Jack gets out of his old Ford pickup carrying several cans of paint. He proceeds to flick a bunch of colors on these beautiful white dogs sleeping in the yard. They didn't seem to mind. Some of them didn't even wake up. Next morning, there was a gang of dog owners banging on the sheriff's door, demanding someone PAY for the vandalism to their prize pups. No one ever did find out the guilty party and the paint eventually all wore off...I think...I hope!
