SHAKESPEAREAN TRAGEDY ... AT 7TH AND MONTANA!

                             

It was a touch of Shakespeare this morning at 7th and Montana as an Attractive Woman known among insiders as "Juliet" made the scene with "Romeo," her High-Strung Pekingese Pup.  No need to ask wherefore art this Romeo, however.  Juliet keeps him in her purse.  This morning, in a rare break with tradition, Romeo flew the coop.  He poked his head out of the purse, yapped up a storm and jumped onto the sidewalk, scaring an Adorable, Three-Year-Old Girl in the process.  "Mommy, mommy," cried the Little Girl, running to my table for safety, "It's a Scary Dog!"  I waited for the mother to calm the little girl down before offering-up an explanation.  "I know it must have been frightening for your daughter to see a dog jump out of that woman's purse, but that's nothing," I whispered to the Little Girl's Mother, "You should see where she keeps her husband ...!"
