Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
White GSD Puppy! Her ears are all floppy - awww.
It's really rather horrible how dogs have discovered our vulnerability to the Cute. Just a few minutes ago I was scratching my boss's dog's head. I stopped, and she laid her head down on my leg and looked at me with her sad doggie eyes - until I started scratching her head again.
Damn that doggie!
Well, some shepherds who are German are people. (See Tina Fay cc ad.)
I love that ad, sumi. I am easily amused and it cracks me up.
Kat, my mentee asked me to pass along her thanks for your advice about local grad educational programs. She's looking into CSUN's program since they have an English specialty. So thanks!
YAY! Glad I could be helpful. CSUN has a rep as being actually practical. My friend supervises elem teachers there and another friend works at the high school that is a charter roughly related to it (NAHS... Northridge something High School).

There's a theory that we're hardwired to see immature traits such as proportionally larger feet, heads and eyes, as something to take care of, presumably so that babies don't look like lunch. Many dog breeds were created from breeding for immature traits, because they're what we're programmed to think of as cute.
Kat - was it you that had offered K-Bug some SAT type advice? She is retaking on Saturday and starting to stress over it.

Yeah, that all makes sense.
Also, pet owners tend to have a slightly longer life-expectancy. So in a sense, dogs and cats are breeding us to like dogs and cats....
eta: IMO, a cool symbiotic relationship....
Or maybe a sex toy that has a loudspeaker that says, "ATTENTION BUILDING RESIDENTS - SOMEONE IN THIS APARTMENT COMPLEX IS MASTURBATING."
"THIS HAS BEEN A PUBIC SERVICE ANNOUNCMENT."
is twelve
When I got up this morning, it was dark.
I have spent the past 3 hours with the VIP and it was fine. I probably still have a job. Heh.
