Wait, I have been practicing barking all these years for fending off mountain lions and are you guys saying it's out of fashion now?
I learnt it from Mr. Mud years ago. He told me that when he was riding solo in the Bermuda triangle of Henry Coe in the middle of a dark night, he spotted a pair of eyes. Feeling the hair standing up on the back of my neck, I asked him what he did at that moment. "I barked!"
