Coffee Cup Story
At the top of the hill near by:
One man puts his coffee upright on the snow. Gets into a designer inner tube with another man and pushes off down the hill. At the bottom of the hill at the apex of the inner tube's velocity a young boy runs out across just in time to get clobbered by tube, bouncing off the front like a basketball. No real damage done but much crying and consoling taking place. It turns out the two men were taking their two sons tubing and wanted to have a grownup run
Mean while back at the top of the hill another small boy moving clumsily in his oversized rubber galoshes knocked over the coffee cup spilling the coffee out staining the snow brown. Shortly afterwards a small male dog came along, lifted his hind leg and did what all male dogs do peed on the cup to mark his territory.
The moral of the tale:
Males do what they always do and never leave your coffee cup alone.
As an aside the coffee cup is not the same one in the photo, the man being a good citizen picked up the coffee cup in question and placed in the waste bin pee and all.
