Pierre Meets a Turtle

   As I promised last week, Pierre is going to tell you about some backyard mischief.  I should warn you that he has a tendency to embellish the story.  To find out what actually happened, please watch the video.

Pierre: “Thank you, Gramma.  Just the other day, I was performing my usual perimeter search.  Sometimes when I am inside the house, renegade squirrels intrude on our turf.  Anyway, I was sniffing along the fence line when I saw a UCO (Unidentified Crawling Object).  My instincts told me that it was a miniature Army tank.  I barked for back up only to remember that Bentley was sunning in the front room.  I was on my own, just one fearless Westie up against an armored tank.  From a distance, I was pretty sure that I saw a huge gun sticking out of the front of it.”

Me: “You certainly approached with extreme caution.  The way that you were barking, I was afraid that you’d discovered a snake.”

Bentley: “Seriously dude, it was a turtle.”

Pierre: “Well yes, I figured that out when I approached.  I tapped on the shell and hollered, Hey Donatello!  Hey Raphael!  Then, I started singing the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles song.  I don’t guess that it was one of the famous turtles, but it still may have been a ninja.  I turned my head for just a second and it started to move.  I was on it like white on rice.  Bentley, you should have seen me.  I started with the Ali Shuffle and then I was floating like a butterfly and ready to sting like a bee.  Buzzzzz.”

Bentley: “You were trying to rough up a turtle?  I remember when I saw one for the first time.  Dogs remember their first turtle, squirrel, and frog; it is a rite of passage.  I’d like to think that I handled myself with a bit more cool than you did.  *Snicker, chuckle, ROFL*

Pierre: “Scoff if you must, but I probably saved the entire family from a turtle apocalypse.  That so-called turtle may have looked innocent, but he had a weapon hidden inside his armor.  It looked like a machine gun or something.  If Gramma hadn’t made me come inside, I’d have put my Karate moves on him.  Ahhh Yaaa!”

Me: “Why don’t we let our friends watch your video and judge for themselves?”

Pierre: “That’s a great idea.  I hate that you didn’t get its weapons on film.  I guess that I put such fear into him that he hid them.  Even a turtle knew his weapons were useless against Pierre the Perimeter Protector.  Roll it!
