For Chris, all he wants to do is meet up with people, because he’s not busy. He’s the opposite of all these New Yorkers who are booked solid throughout the day, and even if they had free time, they wouldn’t want to meet up with you.

Pedigree dog food has a trio of funny ads – I’m partial to this one: "Beware of The Dog, He Has Abominable Breath" because as a dog owner, I can attest that it’s true! The only thing worse that my dog’s breath are her farts.
