Wow. Who knew? Somewhere between Union Station and Philly, I found myself laughing and crying--out loud-- a half dozen times. Somewhere between Philly and Penn Station, I fell in love...again. <BR/><BR/>For anyone who has been "touched" by the warm nuzzle of a knowing friend, it's a poignant story. For anyone who is thinking about adopting a dog, it's a must read.<BR/><BR/>For anyone who has ever loved, it's the quintessential love <BR/><BR/>Good boy, Marley.portiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04787293661302431895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13022824.post-1141687836901382892006-03-06T18:30:00.000-05:002006-03-06T18:30:00.000-05:00I am comforted in the knowledge that you too are p...I am comforted in the knowledge that you too are protected against whatever evil is responsible for that doorbell ringing. <BR/><BR/>No vehicle can replace that peace of mind, not to mention the delightful pandemonium of friends coming to visit.Pile OnĀ®https://www.blogger.com/profile/13969212407780454348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13022824.post-1141677446442707192006-03-06T15:37:00.000-05:002006-03-06T15:37:00.000-05:00spd, you are just a cupcake with cream filling for...spd, you are just a cupcake with cream filling for a heart.<BR/><BR/>heh.<BR/><BR/>I like doggies too...and my youngest Child Labor Unit earnestly desires a Great Pyrenees.<BR/><BR/>The felines aren't too happy, but since they have their claws and fangs intact, and have the run of the outdoors, they will survive.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13022824.post-1141565424617531752006-03-05T08:30:00.000-05:002006-03-05T08:30:00.000-05:00One way to get rid of the cats:)Mazeltov spd!

It also makes me laugh out loud when I remember you telling me once that the only <EM>animals</EM> you like are the ones you can buy in the meat section of the grocery store. Heh. <BR/><BR/>Rhodesian ridgebacks are handsome, powerful dogs. Energetic too. <EM>Very </EM>energetic. The name Turbo is perfect.
