Come Home<br />
Just So.<br />
Elizabeth M. Jarrell<br />
Kensington, MD<br />
William has exceptional<br />
engineering skills.<br />
It may well be that he is<br />
proficient in plumbing<br />
as well.<br />
A<br />
lot of dogs are intimidated by big strangers with large<br />
tool boxes. Some bark incessantly. Others immediately<br />
run away to hide. Not William. Everyone is his longlost<br />
best buddy. He enthusiastically greets all guests,<br />
even the plumber, who is a very large, strong guy with a large tool<br />
box and mysterious boxes of plumbing equipment such as toilets.<br />
William especially likes to welcome guests carrying a toy in his<br />
mouth, often to share.<br />
The plumber’s latest visit was to solve the mystery of onequarter<br />
inch of water under my kitchen sink which turned out to<br />
be a failed disposal. Every time the plumber went out to his truck<br />
for another item and then walked back into the house, William<br />
acted like he had not seen him in ages. William is nothing if not<br />
a friendly sort of fellow. I’ve known my plumber for decades and<br />
he is an incredibly nice, gentle guy who loves dogs and is a crack<br />
plumber.<br />
Many dogs, if not already in hiding, run away when a plumber<br />
begins to produce odd-shaped instruments out of his tool box.<br />
