JMcAndrew sends in some oldies from Frank and Ernest: “Why would this be a horror movie for a dog?”

For the first one, Lassie wouldn’t have a place to go. Of course, if Lassie really is a lassie, it wouldn’t matter.
Female dogs don’t urinate on trees?
Ben Franklin was 70 years old in 1776 so I think this is a joke about him being a pervy old man. He lived to be 84 which is remarkable for the time period and he did serve as an ambassador to France.
Ben Franklin WAS a pervy old man. He wrote something about doing things with elderly ladies, because they can’t get pregnant and they are SO grateful.
He also did not like to be overheated. He alternated among 4 beds, because when one got too warm he would move on to the next one. And then when he took a bath in the morning, he wouldn’t towel-dry. Instead he would open the window and sit naked in front of it until he air-dried. Which I suppose gave the elderly ladies a chance to do some window shopping.
Re the Lassie joke: there’s a really old one about why sled dogs in Alaska run so fast. It’s because the trees are few and far between.
Ben was KNOWN to be a ladies man.
A friend of husband’s (we are 18th century reenactors) interprets Ben, so in a way I can say he is a friend with a reputation for the ladies.

A few months ago I watched Franklin, a miniseries on Apple-plus dealing with his time in France. It was pretty entertaining. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franklin_(miniseries)
