It's a fact that the compulsion to look where others are looking is a sign of sentient intelligence.
Ok, i swear this is true. Tonight i was in my jaccuzzi, after my 3rd whiskey and water. It was dark outside and the moon wasn’t out. It was dark and the stars were amazing.
So I look over at the patio and see my dog Charlie sitting there, looking straight up at the stars just like i was.
That dog is flat smart.

There’s a flipside to that.
Odin will be laying here beside me and then *suddenly* look up at the light on the wall over the sofa.
Naturally, I assume a spider or something is about to drop on my head so I’ll whip around and look up there, too.
There’s nothing there and when I look back at him, he’s ‘smiling’ and his nub is wagging a million miles a second...and then he snorts and ‘chuckles’.
He ‘plays jokes’ on me all the time.
