Daily Kindle Deal Post Mortem
“How did yesterday’s Daily Kindle Deal for DOG ON IT do?” says Admin.
“In what way?” says Spence.
“Hmm. Got me there.”
“And anyway I really had nothing to do with it.”
“You did write the book, though, unless I’m missing something.”
“And now I’m writing another one.”
“The new C&B? What’s it called?”
“It’s called – oops, better take this phone call.”
Still sorting out Friends uploading issues.

Good morning all. I did remember the password for dishlickers and was able to read Amalia’s message. I am so sorry to hears the news and will keep you in my thoughts and prayers at this difficult time. I am glad you can be there for him.
Getting ready for a work day here. Yesterday was a perfect fall day. Today temps will be dropping about 20 degrees. Brrrr.
7:57 am on October 28th, 2014
Good morning, everyone! Great here, too, B&M&L. Mom has left for her library time and we are going to nap since we got her up early :!
8:18 am on October 28th, 2014
Staff, I LOVE your work(play) room. That quilt looks marvelous.
Good news about the newest little Plunderer about to enter the world.
Good morning to all. Sunny, windy, 42 degree day (so far) in Wisconsin.
8:24 am on October 28th, 2014
Good luck to GLAD and OTAS with their birthing and this exciting new chapter in their lives.
Must shut down the computer and take off. Have a great day everyone.
8:56 am on October 28th, 2014
I’d like to know the new title.
Good morning all.
9:08 am on October 28th, 2014
Thank you Rose. I like the Google Doodle. (I remember polio shots also.)
I wonder if the baby has been born. And what a wonderful quilt Staff.
9:40 am on October 28th, 2014
No news on the baby front – it could actually be a couple of days yet, but GLAD is at the hospital being pampered and cared for, with OTAS at her side.
And today is Jodi’s (the person, not the pup)Birthday! Happy Birthday Jodi!!!
10:21 am on October 28th, 2014
We await our friend’s grand with baity breath.
Jodi, whop hoo yodel howl to you in 4 part puppy harmony ☺️
10:35 am on October 28th, 2014
Me too!
I want to know the title of the next book.
Tupper’s Mama: It will not be an easy job to be there for your brother as he comes to the end of his journey. You are there for him and we will be right there with you. We will supply shoulders to cry on and pillows upon which to rest your weary head at the end of the day. Some will supply laughter and hugs and all will supply love, lots of love to you and your family.
We are going to be blog grandparents!
Staff: Your new quilting room is already being put to good use!
Serious packing going on here. I still have to get an absentee ballot for the municipal election that will happen in November, go to the bank, charge my camera, and many other little details, some of which I will forget.
Happy birthday to Jodi!
10:41 am on October 28th, 2014
I think the new title is Cats Rule, Dogs Drool.

Staff: The Indie Film is a Wonderful Tribute to Chris. I wish we were in Chicago to see it. Hopefully it will be available later for viewing.
What a Wonderful & Thoughtful Gift for OTAS & GLAD’S baby (and our newest Plunderer).
Yes, Dawson. You had better Get Packing, Amigo.
12:01 pm on October 28th, 2014
The Awesome One has reminded us we have not completed and mailed in our absentee ballot.
Important measures to be considered regarding gun control this time around.
Question: Why do the powers that be have to make these things so difficult? It can’t be a simple either/or response, but always has something added on, confusing the issue.
12:02 pm on October 28th, 2014
Jodi! The happiest of birthdays to you!!!
12:13 pm on October 28th, 2014
BearSpiritDog: I am excited to be coming down Nana’s way. My passports are packed! I leave tomorrow at noonish but have to spend the night in Vancouver before I cross the border into Bellingham.
12:33 pm on October 28th, 2014
I would like to know the title of the new Chet and Bernie book, but Spence will tease us for awhile. I hope Dog On It sold well yesterday (I bet it did) because readers cannot stop at one book in that series.
Happy Birthday to Jodi!!!
12:44 pm on October 28th, 2014
Title!…I thought we went over this Title business already…snort!…We landed on Pug and Odor, remember?…sniff!
1:14 pm on October 28th, 2014
Riö: Heh, heh, in your dreams.
1:45 pm on October 28th, 2014
Dreams!…Deep into that darkness peeing, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no Pug ever dared to dream before.

Touché, my friend.
2:37 pm on October 28th, 2014
Happiest of birthdays to you, Jodi!
2:55 pm on October 28th, 2014
Rio, who was rapping, rapping, rapping on yor door? Was it YOUR wind and nothing more? (You cute literary pugster you.)
Lurker, check your SDD.
3:00 pm on October 28th, 2014
HOunds: LOL.
3:08 pm on October 28th, 2014
Rio, Nevermore
3:50 pm on October 28th, 2014
Tupper’s Mama–Just got caught up and heard. My thoughts and good prayers join all those others seeking to comfort and help sustain you and all those you love.
Happy Birthday Jodi.
Staff–Stunned and impressed by the quilt (and the whole quilting setup–you are so organized!)
Everyone–Now teaching 3x as much as I was this time last year and fatigued a little over halfway through the term. Thanks to y’all and the comfort of this blog, not completely crazy and distraught, so this is a good time for me to take a page from Wose/Rose’s book and mention my gratitude.
Kind of desperate for a pun or two at this point, and I’m not sure I get the whole pug/Poe thing. (Just sayin’…)
3:53 pm on October 28th, 2014
Diane – Poe was dark, mysterious, haunted and brilliant. Rio is….well…..Rio is a mystery.
3:55 pm on October 28th, 2014
Oh wait–just found the Poe homage…kind of cute. Will HOH add some more? This could be a group project…
Deep into the puddle, peering, long I sat there, not quite hearing snuffles, chuffles, farts and gurgles low in my proximity…
4:00 pm on October 28th, 2014
DianeC, and full of methane!
SPOILER ALERT…FOR DIANE C. ONLY
The ancient Romans only gathered once a week because that was enough forum!
P.S. If you need more, just say the word.

I wish I could write as mysterious as a cat.
Edgar Allan Poe
so there, Pug!
4:50 pm on October 28th, 2014
Or how about this one; even if it is incomplete:
That pleasure which is at once the most pure, the most elevating and the most intense, is derived, I maintain, from the contemplation of the beautiful…..(Kat)
Edgar Allan Poe
4:51 pm on October 28th, 2014
Happy Birthday, Jodi!
HOH: checked and responded. Yay!
5:20 pm on October 28th, 2014
After he published his work, did Edgae Allan Poe become Edgar Allan Rich?
5:21 pm on October 28th, 2014
There is an eloquence in true Pugism.
Edgar Allan Poe
5:23 pm on October 28th, 2014
Quote!…The real quote!…snort!
That pleasure which is at once the most pure, the most elevating and the most intense, is derived, I maintain, from the contemplation of Bacon.

Pug farts of whatever kind invariably excites the sensitive soul to tears.

Wose! The Most Awesome Plunderer Calendar Hath Arrived!!!
Thank You So Much for all your hard work!! You are a Natural for the Creative Arts 🙂
5:56 pm on October 28th, 2014
I did not get my calendar. Waaaa.
6:08 pm on October 28th, 2014
B,M,&L: The post office receipt says you are due to receive your calendar today.
6:11 pm on October 28th, 2014
BSD: Thank you! I hope you like it!
6:13 pm on October 28th, 2014
Rose, My mail comes mid afternoon. I checked it when I got home at 5:00 and the calendar was not there. It will probably be here tomorrow.
It took over a week for you to get my check, so I am not worried.
6:21 pm on October 28th, 2014
The post office….so dependable.
6:27 pm on October 28th, 2014
REGARDING THE PUG
Behold the grand, majestic pug
Lying there just like a slug.
He loves the middle of the rug
Where he is always nice and snug.
Some say he looks just like a thug
But we just think he needs a hug
Or his face printed on a mug.
The pug is like an antidrug
His tongue and looks are oh, so smug.
At meals he may go glug, gllug,
And if so you just need to shrug,
Unless our nose you need to plug.
BURP! SPLORT! FART!
6:32 pm on October 28th, 2014
Hello everyone. Mom is officially out from under her quilt and back on her bike. Woo Hoo!
6:34 pm on October 28th, 2014
Rose: Like it? We LOVE it!
6:59 pm on October 28th, 2014
Oh dear, we appear to have shut down the blog…again. Sorry.
7:07 pm on October 28th, 2014
HOH, we like it, very creative. Far beyond the ability of anyone here.
7:08 pm on October 28th, 2014
I have to be patient because it is still a couple weeks before I get the calendar, but I can hardly wait!
O’Howlers: Hooray for bicycles! Only the very hearty are out on their bikes these day.
The temperatures have dipped below freezing and probably won’t come back up until March. I’m out of here tomorrow! Will spend one night in Vancouver then across the border heading for a wet Halloween if the reports are right. Nana is going to pick me up in Bellingham! We’ll have lunch somewhere between there and the Seattle airport. Yippee!
I wonder if our blog grandchild is being born yet, if the 5 buck truck is still going and, if there is a baseball game on tv tonight and if I should pack 90% of my stuffed animals to give to the grandkids.
Is the 5 Buck Truck still going
7:11 pm on October 28th, 2014
Oops.
I need an editor.
HOH: About your poem Regarding the Pug, I like the title. 🙂

8:30 pm on October 28th, 2014
O’Howlers: 75 degrees! I have been looking at the temperatures in Celsius which seems much colder than Fahrenheit. I am packing for 40’s to 60’s but by the time I return in December it could easily be -30 C which is -20 F. so I will have to bring some heavy clothing.
8:30 pm on October 28th, 2014
Five Buck Truck Fund! WoooHooo!!!
Let’s Rock & Roll and Bring it Home!
8:32 pm on October 28th, 2014

8:44 pm on October 28th, 2014
(Ahem)
I think that I will never hug
A dog so lovely as a pug
Or….
I think that I will never lug
A dog so hefty as a pug
Or….???
Anyone else?
8:46 pm on October 28th, 2014
Wolfie!…Just keep looking for loose change, will ya?…grunt!
8:49 pm on October 28th, 2014
Wolfe, there are 25 real words that rhyme with pug,
8:52 pm on October 28th, 2014
Really? 25? Hmmm…….
8:53 pm on October 28th, 2014
25!…Someone we love and adore for more than her pretzels just donated $25. …snort!…Magic!
9:04 pm on October 28th, 2014
BluKat!…snorkel!…The total is now $4850.00…yeeeeep!
9:10 pm on October 28th, 2014
ONE FIFTY!…That is all there is left to make a manageable truck-payment happen for Snowhook…gasp!…Beau says he is tapped out and I am empty-pockets right now…sob!…I so wish I could help make this final push happen…sniffle!
9:19 pm on October 28th, 2014
$4875!!…Oh My Dawg! The Five Buck Truck Fund will be funded if this keeps happening TONIGHT!….gasp!…SnowKat made the last donation…zow!…Who is SnowKat again?…heh!
9:19 pm on October 28th, 2014
Rio: I leave tomorrow but only get as far as Vancouver. The next day I will go to Bellingham, missing the youngest son who is up in Alaska working (or not working because it’s too warm). I’ll visit d i l, Bijou (5 years) and Dresdon (almost 16) for a couple days, then to Seattle via Nanabus to Missoula Montana where I see A Catty Librarian and Elliot the Massage Cat, and my oldest son, d i l and Ruby Josephine, the youngest of the family.
It goes on from there and I do end up in Minneapolis in the middle of the month, staying until Staff shows up and we have a nice Thanksgiving together with Dad, Turtleman and little “e”.
Then back to Bellingham where hopefully I get to see youngest son and back home to Canada.
9:21 pm on October 28th, 2014
Heh, heh! Way to go, Snow Cat!
9:21 pm on October 28th, 2014
Frantically Looking for some Loose Change.
9:24 pm on October 28th, 2014
Dawson!…On the Move!…snort!…Keep us all posted on your where-abouts, will ya? Plus, once this truck fund comes to a glorious end (tonight!) you will have to re-energize that Checkpoint fund…heh!heh!…You have a lot on your Dawson-Plate my friend!…wheeze!
9:25 pm on October 28th, 2014
9:30 pm on October 28th, 2014
Maskers!…Are you SnowKat?..heh!heh!
9:43 pm on October 28th, 2014
At the end of this night, Dawson can mark the..Goodbye to the Old/Hello to the New..Truck checkpoint fully funded.
The Kats have spoken.
9:45 pm on October 28th, 2014
Heh, heh. Nanabus. I like that!
9:46 pm on October 28th, 2014
What a game!
9:51 pm on October 28th, 2014
7th Inning! … God Bless America, land that I love! Stand beside her and guide her with the light from above. From the mountains to the prairie to the oceans white with foam…God Bless America my home sweet home!..snorkel!…I may have missed a few words or even verses, but I love that song deep in my Pug-heart…wheeze!
9:54 pm on October 28th, 2014
Maskers!…Is the Nanabus available to me here out in the Wild Wild West?….heh!heh!…I would sure love to visit ole SiberH since he cannot leave his digging construction company to any old squirrel…grunt!…I will have to go to him. That is this deal, I guess…heh!
9:56 pm on October 28th, 2014
The Kats have a good point. Shouldn’t we mark the old truck/new truck as fully funded if the 5 buck truck reaches its goal?
Aaaaargh! Ten to zip!
10:00 pm on October 28th, 2014
Only $125 to go on the goal of the 5 buck truck!
And we would like to share a warning with you – do NOT, under ANY circumstances, open a giant bag of new peanut butter M&M’s. Just back away, and no one gets chubby. Ummm, chubbier…..
Dam, these things are addictive!
10:04 pm on October 28th, 2014
Rio is gonna come visit me!! How cool is that!! We can think up some fun stuff to do. I can drive you around in the Porsche to all the places in Albuquerque that Breaking Bad made famous. I will hire a bodyguard with a gun to go with us.
Masquers, I have always loved that picture of you in the snow but you don’t look like you are enjoying it as much as I would.
10:06 pm on October 28th, 2014
And darn those cute little baby Halloween candy bars!
10:06 pm on October 28th, 2014
Candy!….Her mother bought a HUGE bag of peanut butter and chocolate stuff for “halloween”…gurgle!…Right. She sits here and eats that stuff in front of me and Beau all day long. I do not see how there will be any left for the actual trickie treaters…sniff!…My friend has advised her to not turn her light on or answer the door that night as Beau will go Beau-listic each and every time and blow out his knobby knees…grump!…I hate halloweenie.
10:11 pm on October 28th, 2014
Vivian!…Yeeep! The truck fund is up to 4900.00….twirlng!twirling!…And even swing dancing with Beau to Glenn Miller Big Band Music!…heh!heheh!
10:15 pm on October 28th, 2014
Mmmmm. M&Ms!
I am going to bed early tonight. I don’t need to see the end of this game.
Night all y’all.
10:21 pm on October 28th, 2014
I predict Kansas City will win this game, and soon, very soon, the Dog Truck Fund will reach its goal of $5000
Yippie!!!
Night All
10:24 pm on October 28th, 2014
SiberH!…Will it really be tonight? Will they reach the goal for the new truck tonight?…snort!…Please tell me it will or make it SOOOO…wheeze!
10:26 pm on October 28th, 2014
A ride in the Porsche? Woooo. Count me in!
Siber: Actually, if truth be told, I was totally enjoying that romp in the snow.
Bella doesn’t call me katdog for nothing. Heh.
10:31 pm on October 28th, 2014
WooooooHooooo!!! 10-0! Game 7 is on!!!
10:38 pm on October 28th, 2014
Truck!…Stalled again at 4900.00….gasp!…So damn close. Beau had such high hopes and faith that it would happen tonight…wuffle!
SEVEN!…Game seven is ON!…WOOOOOO!…This is amazing stuff for the World Series!…chuffle!
10:40 pm on October 28th, 2014
When will this game 7 be played? I might actually watch it.
I got a surprise calendar today. Mighty nice. Thanks to those involved.
Now to bed, forsure to sleep. Nighty night, y’all.
10:50 pm on October 28th, 2014
ML: Game is tomorrow.
Thanks for the latest update on the Five Buck Truck..now at $4920.
11:04 pm on October 28th, 2014
Yikes! I can’t leave you guys alone for very long at all–so much happens. I enjoyed all the pug material (No one tried “The _____ comes in on little pug feet” but can’t think of anything along those lines either).
HOH–Loved it and would love to hear more.
Just had a student paper that, to put it delicately, seems to have been heavily influenced by someone else’s (uncredited) writing. Sigh.
I wandered lonely as a pug…
11:26 pm on October 28th, 2014
It Will Be Fully Funded by tomorrow, which is the Fifth Day.
One Thousand Dollars a Day…Not Bad.

11:27 pm on October 28th, 2014
Hi, Diane!
12:15 am on October 29th, 2014
How about this: The Bacon comes in on little pug feet.
Hm. Better put A. Catty to bed so she can wake up in the morning and cook bacon because now I want some, on pug feet or no.
12:39 am on October 29th, 2014
OMD!!! IT’S FULLY FUNDED!!!
10:12 am on October 29th, 2014
Hi Bear–
