Sounds good, Frank

Frank had to write a report about dogs for school, and asked me to proofread it for him. I discovered this:

"Some dogs have very good eyesight. Because of this, they can hear in the dark."

    BWAAAHAHAHA

    Same kid, as a munchkin told his gradma that "You know, if they'd move those "Deer Crossing" signs, maybe the deer would not cross there."
