Inara: So. Would you like to lecture me on the wickedness of my ways? Book: I brought you some supper, but if you'd prefer a lecture, I've a few very catchy ones prepped. Sin and hellfire... one has lepers.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Pretty sure a couple of those are Yiddish
you could be right there. What's the difference again?

That I don't speak it.

Much ~ma to you, Aims.

Kinda sums it up in a nutshell, right there.

OMG! I just got my head bitten off for referring to my new home area as "Mid-West". Silly me. I thought Mid-west started at Ohio, and went to the Rockies. Apparently Texas is big enough to be it's OWN region (as well as state), so it can NOT be lumped in with those "other" states that have no distinction, and thus must be classified as "Mid-West". It was entertaining, and yet, a bit scary, by how much the blood pressure was raised.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Isn't Texas both the South and the South-West, as well as just Texas? Maybe the West too? I think of the Wild West as including it.

I love Tempted by the Skype of Another and Bohemian Skypesedy. Classics!

I need to look into Skype when I get my new (to me) cmputer this week.

This is a serious question, not a snotty one...have you ever worked with Terriers?

No. No. It's a very good question. Terriers are specific in terms of their focus on what they want to focus on.

I've worked with one Cairn ( Roscoe looks just like Toto), a bunch of Jacks (wire, smooth and mixes) and a handful of Westies. This past weekend was a Yorkie whose person contacted me because Cocoa 'believes the world revolves around her."

All Terriers are notorious for distraction and 'untrainability.' And while I respect the much bigger effort required with these breeds, I just don't believe it's undoable. The trick is to not give up! Safety is just too important and I believe that, if one method doesn't work, others will.

Practicing returns during non-dangerous times...every day, is critical. As is, finding something that is even more attractive than the distraction.

With all the Terriers I've worked with, only one is relegated to forever-leashing (and it wasn't the Cairn!)

It always catches me off guard that Texas (or at least most of it?) is in Central Time.

That seems about right to me.

The family in FL & NY keep thinking it's Eastern, and the family in CA forget that I'm no longer on Pacific, and have no clue which zone I'm in, so, ya, I get phone calls at ALL hours when I don't want them. It's good to be loved, I suppose.
