ANOTHER "MY DOG ATE THE MONEY" STORY

  An Associated Press report Monday, April 8, tells the
  tale of two missing $100 bills belonging to Sue Gadaleta
  of Hatfield, PA, which found their way back to the
  government via the intestinal tract of Mia, her
  Doberman pinscher.

  "Gadaleta searched the house, but found nothing - until
  she went to clean up a mess her usually well-behaved
  dog had left in the basement...  I saw this little piece of
  paper, with a one-zero-zero on it."

  Gadaleta called her veterinarian, who said everything
  would be out in 24 hours.  So she spent the next day
  watching Mia like a hawk, and then inspecting, collecting,
  washing, and rewashing, and assembling the pieces.

  Then she called the bank.

  "We all thought it was hysterical," said Helena Baron,
  branch manager.... "It was the first time we ever had
  anything like that happen."
