Hmmmm, reminds me of a freshman dorm where I knew a guy who
claimed Purina Puppy Chow made a marvelous snack food.  Kept a bag of
the stuff in his room, and would gleefully offer it to anybody who
happened in.  He DID eat it, too, whether because he actually liked
it, or because he could sometimes get a rise out of somebody with the
routine I will never know.  In fact, dog biscuits and the like are
kind of bland - if they have bone meal in them they're awfully gritty,
too.  I wonder, had you REALLY been eating dog biscuits - could the
school nurse have come up with any rational reason why they should do
you any more harm than eating, say, .... twinkies?

Arf, Arf!!
