My brother Brian and I have pretty even tempers for the most part. He loses his a little faster than mine. I ran across an email from him that was posted by the recipient on a web board today. I had to leave my cube and go out in the hall and laugh after I read it. I've rarely seen him lay into someone the way he did this lady. When you click on the link, scroll down or search for 'Hatcher.'

My brother, by the way, lives off a small rural "Highway" and has owned several Dalmations. I have to agree that keeping a dog with as much energy as a Dalmation has inside a house all the time is much more cruel than letting it be "a yard dog."
