to look at the end of their nose when their faces are so flat.

But the snail should be careful. I've known several dogs that would eat a snail that was that close just in case it might be food. My last dog probably would have started gnawing on me if I sat still for too long.

When I had the all-original rock band, our rhythm guitarist and I wrote the majority
of our songs, usually separately... but then the two of us would get together and
work on them before presenting them to the rest of the band at full rehearsals.
.
We'd often get stoned first -- and sometimes never get started because we would
get lost in a Dead Can Dance tape loop for HOURS.
.
When we were done working, he'd keep noodling on his acoustic while we talked
and every once in a while would play some really slowed-down "cover" of one of
our songs, look at me and say, "Do it."
.
And I would start to sing the song in a cheesy, cheesy, cheesy lounge singer
voice.
.
We would have LOVED to have done that onstage, but we couldn't for a couple
of reasons. I could only do "The Voice" when I was really stoned (and I didn't
smoke before a gig because I had a bad habit of forgetting 80% of the lyrics)
and we could never get through even one verse and chorus before BOTH of us
were LITERALLY rolling on the ground, helpless with laughter).
.
They were VERY cathartic experiences.
