"In the north Indian region of Kumaon, the traditional remedy for stopping rain is to pour hot oil in the left ear of a dog. The animal’s howls are heard by Indra, God of weather, who stops the rain out of pity for the animal’s suffering. Simple, really."

(Ben Macintrye, The Times)

Sometimes Richard comes to Prozacville to walk his dogs Sam and Monroe. I'm always pleased to see them.
