And it came to pass in Volume 10, Issue 69, that Jim Shankland wrote:

An acquaintance of mine had a spare line listed in his dog's name
rather than paying for nonpublished service.  He lives in a quite
well-to-do area.  The billing records are in his own name but the
directory listing is in the name of his pampered pooch.

Nonetheless, the lucky canine, whose sole economic presence is a
telephone listing in a posh zip code, receives mail with offers of
credit cards, solicitations from brokerage houses, and such.  It's a
dog's life.
