"That young rex, with the sour look in the waiting room, is he your boy?" asked Grrr 
"Yes, and he never had that look when he was younger..he was always happy...." The mother  said.
"Humm. replied Grrr, why don't you go for a nice cup of tea while I have a man to man talk with the lad?" Grrr suggested.
When the worried mom left his office..he had the nurse send in the young rex.
"Son, your mother is concerned and..."
"I am NOT your son!!" the young rex snarled.
With his evil rex grin in place, Grrr looked ..just looked ..at the young rex..who, all of a sudden, truly  wished that he had kept his mouth shut.
"Fine, kid..just want to know where  we stand" Grrr replied..reaching out his massive razor sharp claw and putting on his scrubs.

"Oh." said Billy, the young Rex."Why  are you putting those operating scrubs on ?"
"It can get very messy and you know how hard it is to get blood off a white  lab coat?
 This is a new one. My wife just got it for me and she would be mad if I got it dirty the first time I wore it."
Grrr said with a  predatory grin.
"Oh...look, the last time I was in counseling..Mrs. Bronto. she  just told me to feel good about myself..and she..she told my mom to get me a new ...new ...game or something to help my inner child adjust."
A nervous Billy Rex stammered.
"Not the way, I work kid.". Grrr snarled.
"Mr. Grrr,".Billy started to say when Grrr's nurse came in.

Seeing Grrr in his operating clothes, she said "Not again Grrr. These are new rugs and you know what  Dr. H said at the budget meeting last week."
"Hey", said Grrr, "Did I ask for carpet? I was happy with tiles. Easy to mop up..but no!!.
You guys had to get that designer in here."a warmer..kinder look"  you said". Grrr replied.
Billy Rex looked up at the two older rex, his eyes getting bigger and bigger and his tail starting to twitch nervously .
As the nurse left, Billy said .."Please, Mr. Grrr. Can we start over?"
"Not a problem.  Every kid is entitled to one mistake as a human friend of mine is fond of saying."
Sitting down, and passing Billy a root-beer, Grrr popped a can for himself and said "Boys in the  school yard busting your tail again?"
A shocked Billy almost choked on his root-beer.
As he found his breath, Billy looked at Grrr and said "Yes, they....how..how..did you know?"
