Headline Reads: Fearless Pup Saves Household from Earwig of Doom
(Filed under: Random)At approximately 2:46 p.m. an earwig snuck into the home of Kevin and Abby Hendricks. Abby was not home at the time of the break-in, but Kevin was upstairs working and unaware of the situation. Speak (the family's fearless and brave pup) was just waking up from a nap on the porch when he heard the commotion in the living room. He quickly sprang into action, running to the living room to investigate. Expecting to see a member of the recent ladybug gang, he was taken aback when he saw the earwig of doom. He decided to get a closer look at the enemy.
Realising that it indeed was an earwig of doom he formatted a plan. Phase one of the plan was simple, yet highly irritating to the enemy - poke at him.
Phase two was slightly more complex - sniff him, without getting pinched in the nose.
Phase three - stare at the enemy.

Phase four - force the enemy under The Thing That Eats Dog Toys.
We caught up with Speak for a quick interview later that evening.
R: Speak, that was a brave thing you did.
S: He was heading for my toy basket - I did what needed to be done.
R: Were you ever afraid?
S: Look at me. I wear a studded collar. Do I look like someone who would be afraid?
R: How come you didn't have Kevin come take care of the problem?
S: They hired me to be a full time guard dog. It is my duty to protect them from the Ladybug Gang, Earwigs of Doom, Leaves, the neighbors pinwheels, the SimonDelivers man, and furniture that is moved from it's proper place.
R: That's a lot of responsibility. You must get paid pretty well.
S: I earn about a slice of cheese a week. It's a pretty average salary. If they wanted to upgrade to protection against UPS, FedEx, and Postal Workers, it would be an addtional hotdog per week
R: Well, thank you for your time. I'll let you get back to work.
S: Thanks, anything for my fans.

I think you should have a "Speak Q&A" time where we write in questions and Speak answers them. That would rock.

Hmmm...Q&A with Speak...that could be do-able. I'll talk to my agent and see what she thinks of the idea. If she thinks it would be good for my publicity, then it's a go. Anything for my fans.
