Lorne: Once the word spreads you beat up an innocent old man, well, the truly terrible will think twice before going toe-to-toe with our Avenging Angel. Spike: Yes. The geriatric community will be soiling their nappies when they hear you're on the case. Bravo.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Victor didn't make it through the surgery. After the surgery, Victor went into cardiac arrest. They weren't able to bring him back. He was 9 months old.

From the look of his kidneys, the vet is almost certain Victor had FIP.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

So we're making a major lifestyle change and adding a rescue greyhound to our family today. Would love some easy transition vibes, and any advice anyone can give me on adapting to a new doggie. I've got all the recommended books, but people can tell me things in human-speak that might make more sense.

MEEP!

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs

I have made an offer on a condo. They made a counter offer, a nice one. I accepted it. Barring problems with the condo or unsuspected problems with my credit, come mid-June, I will be living in a home that I own.

Now, I just have pack and clean forever, or at least until April 30th, when I must be out of my current apartment. Yes, there is a discrepancy, when I will be relying on the kindness of absolutely wonderful friends.

Meep!

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I'm afraid the bad news came and it came quickly.

A month ago my Aunt Barbara was at Universal Studios on rides with her grandchildren. She started feeling weak a few days later. Her doctors at Sloane said that this time there was nothing they could do. Tuesday she was moved from the hospital to a hospice near her son's house. She slipped away this afternoon.

Thank you for your kind thoughts through all of this. She and we were grateful for the extra time she had.
