the duck's back

[gurdonark]

Usually, the water rolls right off, as it should.
Sometimes a few feathers get slightly soaked, and one must apply some internal steam dry apparatus, and shiver a bit, as if molting. It is very important not to get doused inside. The last thing anyone needs is help from a wet duck. I like being a largely desert-like mallard, but sometimes a trace of monsoon does ruffle the feathers.

Sorry you got wet--but at least no one would say that *you're ALL wet* :-)

That's a good one! In fact, many might insist that I am rather too dry.

That's funny, but it leaves me strangely thirsty somehow.

Come to me those of you who are, like me, ducks, and I will give you water.
