Voters around the world have spoken. Senator Obama and wife Michelle have promised that, win or lose, their girls can have a doggy after the election. So the AKC conducted a poll.
The winner is a poodle. yeah, great choice- playful but doesn’t shed on the furniture. I like Standards a lot. The little guys [...]
The usual kind. They’re smart- scary smart! And they really do never forget! One of my “causes” is an Elephant Sanctuary in Tennessee. They keep several elephants happily munching on grass in the sunshine- their lonely zoo days or hard work at the circus behind them.

Elephants are lovely [...]
a MOM, a wife, a mother of five, middle-class, working, pro-Life, conservative, hunting, fishing, hoop shooting American woman is now running for Vice President! Sarah Palin is more like my sisters, my cousins, my daughter and my best girlfriends than anyone seeking high office in my lifetime. And it’s about time.
Oh yeah, two days ago [...]
Oh yeah, Wednesday. Labor Day weekend is coming up.

Green creeping vine of the South
Covering the Earth
Not to labor the point, but that stuff is wild! I was in Alabama some years back and saw so much of it had to ask somebody, “what is that green stuff everywhere?” A “gift” from a far [...]
It’s not as hot as it used to be. The garden is petering out. There are great little pumpkins laying on the ground all over the place. I’d take a picture, but the weeds make it a bit embarassing right now. I’m determined that I’ll actually get the garden plots prepared for next year sometime [...]
I am in so much trouble with Ms. VeraWang! She’s been on her restricted diet for the past month. She gets a particular brand of Venison & Rice that comes in canned and dry kibble. It’s paying off; she’s put on some weight and her fur is looking good. She’s not having allergy symptoms, [...]
Pyrate and I went to Denny’s for breakfast yesterday.
We haven’t done that for quite a while. Sometimes it’s nice to have somebody else cook for me! Imagine my surprise when I found out I’m now eligible for the Senior Menu! Most restaurants give you too much food (and too many calories- another reason to [...]
This will be the anthem for me. Every time I hear it I remember where I was working. A good sized office with a cheesy sound system turned to the FM rock station all day. I heard this one all day long. Never noticed before that Mick has “dancer’s legs” - his thigh bones are [...]
You Are a Hazelnut
You are very unique and distinct. You may even freak some people out.
Most people don’t really know how to interact with you.

What Nut Are You?
Hi gang- Along with looking at TMZ and seeing what the celebrities are wearing, reading my latest mystery (it’s good- tell you about it soon), and all my other usual pursuits, I am VERY concerned about what’s happening in Georgia. Did you know that there are US military advisers over there? Georgia has been a [...]
