Sorry it's been months without a post. As a reward, I'm going to tell you my favorite childhood story.
When the Wong kids were young, the youngest of us liked to keep pet hamsters. By the time she had her last hamster, we had our first family dog, Jackie. Jackie loved to watch my little sister's hamster in its cage. She'd be focused on the hamster for hours. One night, Mom was helping Meredith clean the hamster cage. It was necessary to restrain Jackie during this process. Unfortunately, Mom forgot to put the lid back on the hamster cage before letting Jackie into Meredith's room. Jackie went into full stalk mode, jumped on the table, and grabbed the hamster with her mouth. Mom screamed, "Jackie", and Jackie gave a little squeeze before letting go. Hamster, back in the cage, was traumatized and had an eyeball hanging out of its socket after Jackie gave the squeeze. Mom's hysterical, Meredith is crying, and Dad had to take the hamster away and "take care of it". His solution... putting the hamster in a bag and sticking it in the car's tailpipe. He GASED the hamster!! I still laugh whenever I think about it. It's an awful story... sorry, sister...
