Do you have dog breeders in your families? I do; "Best in Show" was spot-on.

Most of the people I've met at dog shows are more or less normal, but the incidence of nuts, fruits, and flakes seems a bit higher than in the population at large.

No, but I know my fair share. Bloodhounds, German Shorthairs, cockers, Bichon Frisse, among others. Yeah, some of them are a little nutty. My great-grandfather kept hounds, but they were true working dogs.

Then there's the yellow lab who rules my house.

You think the DOG show people are nutty, you ought to try CAT shows.

I'd say at least 50 percent of the folks there are a few bricks shy of a load. And I WAS one of 'em for about 10 years.

Yes, but this pretty much true when you get into the rarified atmosphere of any group- chessplayers, antique collectors, muscians, etc.
