And my favorite breed - appearing on the list for the first time (I believe) - the Irish Red and White Setter at 80. Wow. That's really high.

What kind of dog is "GSD".
Belated Thank You to erin and Sue. Unfortunately, his supervising teacher (the tech director/"production manager") has also left me off these emails repeatedly, which is possibly where he gets it from.
I am also having a problem with my regular job student worker. I am irritated with myself for hiring her based on "facts" rather than just hiring who I wanted regardless of their drawbacks. The problem is that she is ALWAYS moving her work schedule around because of differnt things that happen. To the point where it is rare that she gets through her three days of working without changing something. The thing is, I believe her excuses-- she really did get swine flu, then get stuck in an airport, then sprain her ankle running for the plane, then get scheduled for last minute study sessions with the professor. This was all last semester. This semester, in one week of work, she had a class get canceled and had to change her schedule to accommodate a new class, and today she emailed me that she will be late because she is stuck in an airport in Pennsylvania because her flight was canceled. It is also driving my boss crazy, which makes it worse for me.
GSD = German Shepherd Dog.
Oh- I guess I should have guessed!
I'm sorry to find out that the Boston Terrier is not one of Boston's top breeds.
GSD = German Shepherd Dog.
Why the "Dog" as part of that definition? Are there German Shepherd cats?
Why the "Dog" as part of that definition?
Maybe to differentiate from actual shepherds?
Yeah, I have no idea either.
What are the other internet laws/corollaries/adages besides Godwin? I'm blanking.
The part for my minivan is backordered and the dealership has no idea when they can get it. I have preschool drop off/pick up tomorrow, gymnastics on Saturday, and Liv's birthday party is Sunday so I need to shop for that. I need the Mystery Machine back in working condition!
I found some of the good coffee. mwahahaha
I would like to go shopping instead of work today, preferrably with someone else's money. Anyone need a personal shopper for the day? I could also go for curling up on the couch and reading all day.
