Bah. No lunchtime cephalopods for me. I shall have to wait until dinner....
Jane Jacobs.
sad now. One of my heros.
I was unfamiliar with her name, but after reading the obit I realize her writings on suburbia have really (indirectly) influenced me.
I'm askeered this confession will now put me ON THE LIST for Corwood and bt, but I cannot tell a lie.
That's one of the best reasons I've ever read to eat squid et al. However, I, for one, welcome our new spineless, many-tentacled overlords.
Tomorrow is Secretary's Day.
FYI.
Just because I'm not YOUR secretary doesn't mean you don't have to send me gifts. Nothing in the rules says I have to be YOUR secretary to receive chocolates and flowers.
I'm still waiting for my Administrative Professionals Day gifts. Never. Ever. Got. One.
The New York Times Book Review offered a capsule review of a new book by TV dog trainer Cesar Millan (host of the show Dog Whisperer):
Millan likes to talk about the importance of being a pack leader and projecting what he calls "calm-assertive" energy around your dog. The thing to avoid, he writes, is being "angry-aggressive," a trait he identifies in Bill O'Reilly of Fox News. This type of person "would not make a good pack leader," Millan writes, "because the other dogs would perceive him as unstable." (Our presidents are often unable to control their dogs, Millan said in a recent lecture. He added, "We are the only species that follows unstable pack leaders.")
bt? Is this so?
Cesar Millan's show is great--he does things with fractious dogs that I wouldn't believe possible in such a short period of time. His philosophy is basically not letting your dog be dominant over you and always being confidant without being pushy about it (thus "calm-aggressiveness"). Also, treat your dog like a dog, and not like a human.
Of course, I kiss and cuddle my cat, so who am I to talk?
Also, treat your dog like a dog, and not like a human.
But I am a human. Oh, you mean treat the dog like it's a dog. No problem. Totally accept. No kissy face for me.
A friend mentioned that his brother broke his tooth in a dog-kissing incident. See! Don't kiss dogs! I said.
Then he pointed out that the dog in question was a Rhodesian Ridgeback.
If they ask for a kiss, you might as well give it up, and plead duress afterwards.
