Mom: Oh, I saw pics of him
Mom: I didn’t think he’d be your type
Me: he’s not, really
Mom: I sort of wrote him off as a poonhound
Mom: he has that look about him
Me: I don’t think so
Me: but good use of the word “poonhound”, mom
Mom: thanks, it’s one of my favourites
We used to have a dog like that , but he was called a coonhound….a hunting dog…must be that British slang again…

I “poonhound” is a skirt-chaser. A dog, but not in the literal sense.

@ Carlos:
Thanks for the enlightenment! Actually I knew that, but was TRYING to be humorous…missed again.
“Poonhound” was just crying out for some wisecrack…no pun intended..

Well TimBuk2 and Carlos-I had no clue what a poonhound was-so you both helped me out. Even if your joke failed TimBuk2. :)
