Quote of the Month "I love deadlines. I like the whooshing sound they make as they fly by." Douglas Adams

Alligators In The Pool A CEO throwing a party takes his executives on a tour of his opulent mansion. In the back of the property, the CEO has the largest swimming pool any of them has ever seen. The huge pool, however, is filled with hungry alligators. The CEO says to his executives "I think an executive should be measured by courage. Courage is what made me CEO. So this is my challenge to each of you: if anyone has enough courage to dive into the pool, swim through those alligators, and make it to the other side, I will give that person anything they desire. My job, my money, my house, anything!" Everyone laughs at the outrageous offer and proceeds to follow the CEO on the tour of the estate. Suddenly, they hear a loud splash. Everyone turns around and sees the CFO (Chief Financial Officer) in the pool, swimming for his life. He dodges the alligators left and right and makes it to the edge of the pool with seconds to spare. He pulls himself out just as a huge alligator snaps at his shoes. The flabbergasted CEO approaches the CFO and says, "You are amazing. I've never seen anything like it in my life. You are brave beyond measure and anything I own is yours. Tell me what I can do for you. The CFO, panting for breath, looks up and says, "You can tell me who the hell pushed me in the pool!"

Life is always interesting with... four dogs and a bird; our three greyhounds, our toy poodle and our canary. Creatures of habit. Our dogs are very schedule orientated; they know exactly what time we get home from work, they know exactly what time breakfast and supper are at, they know the routines for work-days and weekends, they know the bedtime schedule and routine, etc.. Mandy and Shadow do okay with variations to the schedule but Onyx does not. If we don't do things the same or change the feed time, he complains. He is a "talker" and "talks" to us as soon as it gets close to meal-time and keeps it up until we feed him. He wakes us up early on the weekend (although not as early as we normally get up on weekdays) - no sleeping in allowed! Despite some of their "quirks" that we may not appreciate, they are "greyt" dogs and give us alot of pleasure. We LOVE our dogs! They keep life interesting...

Recommended! Critter Cozies With the onset of winter - the cold and the snow, and the fact that two of our greyhounds tend to get cold easily (they were Florida dogs), it was time to buy pj's for those cold nights. They love to be cozied up in their pj's as much as we love our warm blankets... A friend of ours has her own business where she designs, creates and sells dog coats and pj's. We have bought three pairs of her cozy pj's for the dogs - they just love them! And they look soooo cute in them! You can choose from 2 legged or 4 legged...I have both. Check out Critter Cozies. I'm sure you'll find these perfect for your dog(s) too.

Did you know? Is a world population of 6 billion too many? Compare that with animals. There are more than a million animal species. There are 6,000 species of reptiles, 73,000 kinds of spiders, and 3,000 types of lice. For each person there is about 200 million insects. The 4,600 kinds of mammals represent a mere 0,3% of animals and the 9000 kinds of birds only 0,7%. The most numerous bird specie is the red-billed quelea of southern Africa. There are an estimated 100 trillion of them. Animals are either right-handed or left-handed. Polar bears are left-handed - and so is Kermit the Frog. There are 701 types of pure breed dogs. There are about 54 million dogs in the US, and Paris is said to have more dogs than people.
