We nicknamed this fellow The Sick Puppy because his intractable immaturity frequently leads him
down the wrong path at life's choicepoints. This often results in his feeling literally sick, and sometimes it makes us feel sick too..
He's shown here with Mary-Ellen Lacey, who's ordinarily one of the most level-headed and competent people around this place. Unforturnately, she's so accustomed to anthropomorphizing that she can no longer distinguish between a sick puppy (Species: Canus) and a Sick Puppy (Species: Homo). Too bad her landlady won't allow pets or she would have an opportunity to focus some affection where it might be receiprocated.
