All dogs can do that? My perpetually unhappy pug would like to have a word with you.

True story: in my early teens I had a fondness for Stepping Out and was utterly convinced for a time that it was Ben Folds Five song.

First thought: "$350 for a power vehicle? Not bad. Actually, fairly cheap. Cheaper than I was expecting"
