SAYING
THERE'S AN OLD SAYING ABOUT A DOG IN THE MANGER THAT WE USE
TODAY WHEN WE KEEP THINGS TO OURSELVES WHEN WE CAN'T USE THEM
BUT WE WON'T LET SOMEONE ELSE HAVE THEM IF HE CAN USE THEM.
THIS CAME FROM A FABLE ABOUT A DOG WHO WAS KEEPING WATCH OVER
SOME HAY AND HE WOULDN'T LET A HORSE HAVE ANY EVEN THOUGH THE
DOG COULDN'T EAT IT HIMSELF.
Data entry tech comment: THE SAYING ITSELF IS "DOG IN THE MANGER."
