There is nothing in this world that anyone could do to me that would ever set me in motion to cause harm to their pets in retribution. Even if they were to take Karen from me, I wouldn’t be able to do a thing to their animals; Karen would never allow it anyway. But weContinue reading “Not to My Worst Enemy…”

Close Call
So I decide to brave the traffic and the impending Winter Storm of the Century if you believe the forecasters, and headed north on I-75 to the humane society which I represent, and on the way, I spied a new building sitting out on its own. I could see kennels and a large play areaContinue reading “Close Call”
The Word Unspoken…
Is the word uneaten. My big brother taught me that at the tender age of 8. I have always spoken with grace and intellect, and others immediately gravitated towards me because I was confident and loquacious. Especially the shy kids. I don’t sugarcoat the fact that I was very much insulated to the whole ethnicityContinue reading “The Word Unspoken…”
Legendary
Way overused. There are several strata to negotiate before the word legendary can be bandied about. Start by being good. If you are not at least good, it’s over. You are done before you start. Then you stand out because you are better than the other participants. Time is the other element you must master.Continue reading “Legendary”
God Bless
G.B. Whoever invented the little doggie wheels that allow dogs with inoperable legs to run like the wind and feel like a doggie should; happy, unafraid, and just like all the other doggies. My heart sings when I see people with these animals and believe Maddogg when he says these people have spots reserved forContinue reading “God Bless”
Stay With Me Now
No question that I am, and always have been a big dog lover starting with our family pets to our two Cocker Spaniel brothers tearing through the house tonight. I am seeing far too many stories of children and adults being killed by dogs. Before I go any further in my own thought process, IContinue reading “Stay With Me Now”
Shaking My Head
An entire family of four from the Upper Peninsula of Michigan have gone missing. In a case that could very well have come from a TV crime show, and I would know, I’ve seen a few of ‘em, this is scary shit. The family left home without taking or caring for their pets. They leftContinue reading “Shaking My Head”
I Totally Get It
I’m an asshole. And the older I get, the less patient I am becoming. I don’t like it. I am not a rude, intrusive person by nature, but I think my condition is caused by my perception of time. There isn’t much more of it left after a massive heart attack, a leg amputation, andContinue reading “I Totally Get It”
Sleeping In
Since I am posting this blog about twelve hours later than usual, I am sure you understand. I slept in. I don’t use the term overslept, because quite frankly, I don’t think there is such a thing. I love sleep. Next to being stoned, it is the best use of hours we have as aContinue reading “Sleeping In”
I Made a Girl Cry
Arguably my finest hour. I was playing Your Song by Elton John, and as I was finishing the last chorus, Karen nodded to me and directed my attention to the bartender. She was a pretty young blonde girl and she explained that her grandfather’s favorite song for his wife was this same song. You alreadyContinue reading “I Made a Girl Cry”
