The best apple I have ever had is the Stayman from Virginia. They are hard to find nowadays but you can find Stayman/Winesap which is similar but not as good as the actual Stayman apple.
I used to walk in my neighborhood and there was one small dog that would jump up on fence to bark at me. He would then run around to the other side of the house to continue barking. One part of the fence had a gate in it and one day for some reason it was unlatched and when the dog jumped on it it swung open. When the dog realized I could now get to him he hightailed it back to the other side of the house.
