ha, reminds me of the Ex, she was dog sitting a tiny dog, and another 
old large meaner dog who could not move much because of bad back legs, 
the littel doggie was barking and herrassing the big dog, so the big dog 
got close enough and bit the tiny dog almost in half, which killed it, 
made a mess and lots of drama.

Lesson is => Under some conditions, tiny doggie's velocity approches 0 
as t=> infinity
