We had a great one down Wildwood, NJ with Richelle’s family, taking part in the May car show. Dad’s (Richelle’s dad) 64 Impala SS drew some crowds and plenty of compliments. I gotta post some pictures for you to understand why – it’s gorgeous. We took Xena on the boards with us (risking a $80 fine). I wanted to take her to the beach but thought the crowds on the boardwalk would offer us cover and they did. Xena did great. She stuck by me and Richelle and walked very calmly among the sea of people making their way. The tramcars kinda freaked her out, but she handled herself well. She was a bit of a star – everyone thinks she’s Benji – and if you ask me, she’s cuter than Benji! Freakishly smart too. Wish the weekend was longer. Back to work.

A terrific idea, I just love browsing around this site: Dogster: For the love of dog. Site to post and share dog photos and facts. Let every canine and pooch have a webpage.

Take *that* you cat people.

You’re The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe!

You were just looking for some decent clothes when everything changed quite dramatically. For the better or for the worse, it is still hard to tell. Now it seems like winter will never end and you feel cursed. Soon there will be an epic struggle between two forces in your life and you are very concerned about a betrayal that could turn the balance. If this makes it sound like you’re re-enacting Christian theological events, that may or may not be coincidence. When in doubt, put your trust in zoo animals.

In the The Pueblo Chieftain Online: “The problem is a loss of focus. People aren’t paying attention, aren’t taking the time to do one thing at a time and make the whole experience a permanent memory. “We are on overload right now,” she says. WWhen things happen to us, when you look back at the time a person is engaging in an event, they’re not 100 percent focused on the event – in today’s world, especially.””

I’m guilty of this.

The Chronicle: Clever Canines. No surprise to me. Not at all.

The Hubble telescope has provided us with sights that weren’t dreamt of , and yet the Bush administration has cut funding. Its future is in serious doubt.

I wish there was a save the Hubble site similar to Spread Firefox. Who knows what could be done? I’d start it myself if I had the time.

Things have been real, real busy lately. Besides, I’m having too much fun going local 🙂
