We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

We're considering adopting a Great Pyrenees.

Oh, dear. Barb, don't you live in Florida? Strikes me that an enormous hairy dog might be less than entirely happy in that kind of heat. I mean, he basically couldn't be walked outdoors for half the year, am I right?

Happy New Cat day, Beth & DH!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm gonna be the last Buffista in NYC soon.

Nah. I mean, other people are staying, right? (Note: Nothing is actually decided on my part.)

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Andy is gorgeous, Beth.

This morning about 5 minutes after I had uploaded this picture [link] someone in Japan had marked it as a favorite, which kind of weirds me out.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Ouch on Belmont.

“Not dead yet!”

Oh, dear. Barb, don't you live in Florida?

Yep. And believe it or not, we have a Great Pyr rescue group a couple of hours away from us which is where we'd probably adopt from. Two of my three dogs are large and double-coated like Pyrs and the Lab is black. Jasmine (the Lab) and Pisces (the Elkie/Keeshond mix) generally go out and cavort in the yard in the morning and in the evenings-- Mooshu isn't so much with the cavorting and only goes out to do his business before coming back in and hanging out on the tile floors. Even in the winter.

I actually have a neighbor who also has a Pyr. Is it the ideal climate for the dog? Probably not-- but I've had enough big furries to know how to help them cope and if they're already in the state and need a home? Big dogs are so less likely to get adopted than the tiny cute ones.

Ouch on Belmont.

Yeah, nice race though.

Beautiful race. Did you watch the Acorn?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Boy, ABC's coverage of the Belmont sucked.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Pyrs are beautiful. I've never spent a lot of time around them, though.

I saw a man walking a newfie in the height of an NC August (95F, 95% humidity). He'd clipped the dog's fur all around the body, leaving sort of a lion's ruff and bit on the tail.

The dog looked sad, but I'm not sure if it was due to the heat or the epically bad hair day it was having.
