Yeah, but you're an amateur fry cook and I come from a long line of fry cooks that don't live past 25.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

DUDE. I love Australian Shepherds as much as the next guy, but getting them because they are cute and then being put off because they have more energy than you can ever expend without taking them to a herding ring...and the fact that, frankly, they are smarter than most of their people...well...that just ain't right to me.
My next favorite request, "How can I get my Beagle to stop barking." Good luck with that!
Today I have a doggy lama client that is a jumper. At least that I can do something about.

Ted Stevens' loss totally messed up my prediction of Palin becoming a Senator in a special election.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
The most harrowing was from my congressional Rep. Jackie Speier who was an aide to Leo Ryan, and shot on the tarmac trying to escape Jonestown. She spent 22 hours lying there with five bullets in her body before she was rescued.
The Post article is by a journalist who was also injured there. He interviews her a bit for this article.

Yeah, I think a lot of people were disappointed by this. Some Dems as well....
Or maybe I'm confusing Dems with comedians.

And bless Uncle Ted for that "mess-up".

I am here to testify.
I *will* say that the citronella collar did work. Sometimes.

Fenris is a Beagle mix, but there's no doubt he got the barking genes. I can distinctly hear his bark from a block away.

Years before my doggy lama days, a friend used a citronella collar on her mutt imported from Puerto Rico. That pooch had some 'street smarts.' She would walk into a corner, throw her head back as far as she could, bark like a maniac, cough a couple of times and then dash off to bark with impunity for the rest of the day. Emptying the collar: 2 minutes. Barking with abandon for 8 hours: Priceless.

bonny, you have a dalmatian; I'm sure you deal with people who adoped a dalmatian because of the damned movies and then realized that they're not as easy to live with as a good-natured mutt. Our dalmatian is one that The Boy inherited from a friend who realized that this high-strung, needy animal was not going to mesh with her vision of a self-maintaining* pet.
*(Seriously. Who expects ANY pet to be "self-maintaining"? Maybe a pet rock. But dogs need food, water, walkies, and attention. Just because a mutt might be more easygoing than our freaky attachment-disorder dalmatian doesn't mean that the mutt is "self-maintaining." But then, the friend wasn't the brightest porch light on the block either; she once -- hand to god -- tried to clean a spot off the dalmatian for about 5 minutes before she figured out it wasn't dirt. I wish I were making that up.)
