Ted Sheridan - Pet Stalkers

I ran an ad to sell my pool table yesterday and today three people called this morning wanting to buy my old hound dog who is blind in the right eye and has failing vision in her left but still knows which way she should run while trying to avoid my wife when she is backing out of our driveway in the minivan to go down to the nearest intersections and post the 'Yard Sale' signs while still under the influence of extreme stress due to the neighbors failure to pay her for any of the top quality items they supposedly bought while roaming through our garage prior to the sale which is scheduled to be held this weekend.
I also ran an ad yesterday to sell my electric treadmill with its high powered motor and monitoring meter to tell the runner if they set any new land speed records and so far four people and a baboon from the Congo called wishing to inquire as to the cost of our 'white eyed' green parrot with the one crooked upturned toe on his right foot which he uses to eat grapes and he can be heard squawking every time the phone rings because he thinks it is my mother in law and somehow he has gotten it into his bird brain head that she is Satan.
I ran an ad today to place my dog and parrot both up for sale and six men from Ontario called and wanted to know how much my pool table was and if the treadmill was still for sale....
