If Phillyguy isn’t a troll in the Hunter Biden thread, the difference is subatomic.

I get the feeling that he’s an old school Philadelphia Democrat . . . a [Frank Rizzo](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_Rizzo) Democrat if you will.

A reminder that “first pet” and “street you grew up on” are also standard account security questions, so post them at your own risk.

When a site asks me those questions, I always give a _non sequitur_ answer to it, something along the lines of (not an actual security question, I hope) "What does 5 +5 equal? My answer: _Blue_.

The way to deal with “your dog’s name” as a security question is kinda like the scene in the Pink Panther movie when Inspector Clouseau walks into the lobby of an inn, and there’s an old innkeeper there and a dog. Clouseau asks, “does your dog bite?” The innkeeper says, “No”. Clouseau reaches over to pet him and the dog takes a big nip out of his hand. “I thought you said your dog does not bite!” Innkeeper: “That’s not my dog”.

Probably a very old tale but I still get a kick out if. I’m easily amused.

Mine would be Lou Grant.

How many of you are wanting to scrape that mental image out of your cerebellums?

Cerebrums. Cerebellums are more involved with balance/motion than thought and mental imagery.

Eh, as long as you’re not doing it into the wind, you should be fine.

You named your first dog _Lou Grant_ ?

Strangely, I feel I have new insight into your early years.

Mine works better if the street name is first: Crosswell Star. “Star” being the family dog who followed my sister and me home from school one day and ended up staying for good.

Sounds like the kind of porn star from a grainy black and white photo where you can see a bit of ankle.

Plot twist: Turns out I’m an ankle man and had to take a shower after reading your post.

Not exactly. Dad named our bird dog Lou (and every bird dog after that), and Grant was the street where I grew up.

I know. I was teasing you.

But this naming every dog you ever have the same name. What is that?  
Convenience?  
So you don’t thru that calling your present dog every dogs name you ever had?  
Don’t want to think too much about it?

I give names to dogs when I see them. It’s almost automatic.  
There was stray(dumped off) dog in my yard this morning. I looked at her long enough. Saw, Pitbully type. Brown. One white foot on front. Recently had puppies.  
Named her “Geraldine”.  
“Diny”, for short"

I had to leave. I’ll never see her again.  
But, Diny I loved you for a few minutes, girl.
