No Relief Here


You wouldn't believe the fierce competition that ensued between Riley and this Egyptian camel when Riley last toured the Pyramids. Riley was just minding his own business, taking care of his business on one of the 1.3 million limestone blocks, when the camel, with small dark man astride, confronted him. Apparently there is no peeing on the Pyramids allowed. Riley, caught with his pants down, was slightly embarrassed by the incident, and frightened because the strange animal seemed to have an enormous, disfiguring and maybe cancerous lump on its back. Shame, sympathy and fear are complicated emotions for a dog to have simultaneously.
