Ah, Loap! She's so darn cute!

Ok, a few more:

one moment, of the well of life to taste-
The stars are setting and the caravan
starts for the dawn of nothing; Oh, make haste!

A poodle?

My Doberman, Dude, is turning in his grave.

Tell Dude to relax. I don't have a poodle -- I can't stand poodles -- and I don't have a friend named Faulconer Gaylord Biddington III.

Growing up, I had a boxer-mongrel named Prince and a coal black Great Dane named Giant Dumbhead.


Well, color me a cherry ghost.

But, seriously, Dude, whilst he was still alive, God rest his soul (=car accident; fender repair for them), liked biting the heads off of poodles. And my fingertips.

Animalia is absolutely not what he had in mind.

A vicious big beast, he was.

cksalmon - what kind of pup is that? So cute!

Brackite wrote:The Brackite is also kind of a little bit much overweight. The Brackite has tried to lose a little bit of weight before. It is kind of hard for the Brackite. However, The Brackite's Blood Pressure is pretty much normal and fine. The Brackite likes seeing Kerry Shirts and DCP having fun, on Youtube. However, The Brackite likes seeing Shawn McCraney along with Sandra Tanner Quite a lot more, on Youtube.
Please See For Example:

Interview with Sandra Tanner (Heart of the Matter 1/9/2007):

Sandra Tanner has a lot of Good knowledge about Mormonism. Sandra Tanner also has a lot of Good knowledge about the Book of Abraham.
Please See For Example:

You're so right, Brackite. I suspect most people could stand to lose a bit of weight and it's not easy! I liked seeing Kerry's FAIR videos, mainly because I'd always heard about the FAIR Conference and wondered what it was like. The other reason, of course, was to see some of the people who are posters I've encountered on the boards.

I've seen that interview with Sandra Tanner and enjoyed it very much. I understand why LDS might not like Born Again Mormon and/or Sandra Tanner but I appreciated the interview.

And Jersey Girl likes The Brackite's posts.

:-D

That was my doing. Giant Dumbhead never learned to bark. She spent most of her life as a watchdog at the construction business that my family owns in California, and her silence (coupled with her deep blackness) made her all the more terrifying to strangers. When one of them approached the equipment yard, she would gallop at full speed to meet him. She was about the size of a small pony, and, when she put her paws up on the fence, she could look you right in the eye. Strangers didn't understand that all she really wanted was to be petted and to lick their faces. She once knocked somebody down right in a grease puddle -- he was off balance, and she caught him by surprise -- and did commence licking his face. She was wonderful.

Our office manager was a sentimental sort who absolutely adored dogs, and he insisted on calling her Lady. But everybody else knew her as Giant Dumbhead, and she responded to that name.
