Moses was an inner city cheapskate.
He was up early while everyone else was sleeping late.
Sunday was his day to be a small time thief.
He would steal one of his neighbors' Sunday newspaper.

Leaving the neighbor with a lot of grief.
One Sunday morning he was sneak attacked and bit by a neighbor's dog.
He would have missed getting bit in the butt.
If there had not been a lot of fog.
