- Don't worry, Fido; those white characters Mr. Whitmore has painted are Easter bunnies, and they only take two-legged folks, minds off dogs once a year. They slip into houses at night, drop colored eggs and vanish. You say, Fido, that they couldn't get away with it if a good watchdog were around? They could, because they are myths, really just lovely thoughts, and nobody can bite a lovely thought, nobody would want to. But you don't think those bunnies smell like lovely thoughts, Fido? Well, look; there are real bunnies, and myth bunnies, and chocolate bunnies, which don't smell like real ______. What's that you ask? Which comes first, the bunny or the egg? Now see here, pup, you stop trying to think! Leave that to editors.
