Fat? Bats?

On the phone with Curtis tonight I mentioned that my pug, Beans, was looking fat.

Curtis:  Bats?

Me:  No, fat.  Beans is fat.

Curtis:  We should set you up a little bat coop.

Me:  Why would I want bats?

Curtis:  Well they eat the mosquitoes.

Me:  Isn't there something else that will eat them besides bats?  Like frogs?

Curtis:  Well frogs will eat them if you've got light. 

Me:  I just think I'd rather have mosquitoes than bats.

Curtis:  Mosquitoes carry worse diseases than bats.

Me:  What about rabies?  Don't bats carry rabies?

Curtis:  If you get bit by one, you can get rabies.

Me:  Is there something worse than rabies that a mosquito can give you?

Curtis:  Beans gest a rabies vaccine so no need to worry about him getting bit by a bat.

Me:  I just have to worry about him being fat instead?

Curtis:  Guess so.

Me:  I feel like we just had a very circular conversation...

Curtis:  hehehe...
