I just went back to those dog portraits, and came across this gem: Mufasa the Redbone Coonhound. Is that breed OK for a white person to say?????
Hey, I've been in a firefight before! Well, I was in a fire. Actually, I was fired from a fry-cook opportunity. I can handle myself.

Kato is a black and tan coonhound, and it does give me pause every time I say it.

Down here, Cajuns call themselves "coonasses" which freaked me right out when I first moved here. Always an interesting FB discussion, for sure.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
The Illinois House sounds like it will be more difficult.

The plan is (was?) to get it signed into law on Valentines Day. Dunno if that's still possible, but our Governor said he'd sign the bill.

Thrive to spite them
When I was hypomanic (at least I think that's when) I would sometimes hear my Mom calling my name. It was like she was in the other room. I knew she wasn't there but I could hear her outside of my head.
Also one of the times I was in the hospital there was a patient who hallucinated cats. She knew they weren't there but she'd see them on the street or in her house and in the hospital. All kinds of cats.
I don't agree with the last civil rights struggle comment but there's still such a huge stigma to mental illness. There's a forum I've been reading lately for bipolar disorder and the majority of the people say they don't tell anyone because they are afraid of what will happen or because of past experiences. Including family members disbelief, harassment, or cutting the person wtih bipolar disorder out of their lives. I can only imagine it's worse for someone who has schizophrenia considering the perception.
Heck I read an editorial in the paper back home in the case of a well known person (locally) acting erractic - the person writing the editorial said it would be better for him and his family if he had a drug addiction rather than having a mental illness.
