Good Morning and Happy Saturday all! Mom and Dad have been to dances where Ray Price was performing (in his later years, though). He always had good dancing music.
9:03 am on December 21st, 2013
Good morning. We checked out the link with all the great Anchorage restaurants. They sound great! Now we are wondering if Mom would have been wiser staying right in Anchorage? She does love to eat. Hmmm
Pop thinks being midway between Anchorage and Willow is still going to be the best.
So Dawson and Barb? You know there is still room at the Hobbit Hotel. Please come Way Up North to Alaska!!!!!
9:33 am on December 21st, 2013
Good morning all. We always like Ray Price too. Never got to see any live performances though.
Howlers, we are opting out of the trip way up north. After Barb’s last trip by plane, she is declining to attempt another trip out of Chicago. She has concerns about winter travel and feels really bad about it, especially with all the Plunderers going and getting to stay at the Hobbit Hotel.
She would like to go east by train in April or May. Are there others who would join her on Amtrak? I know several have expressed interest in a meet and greet in MA.
9:38 am on December 21st, 2013
Good morning, everyone! Ray Price, always a smooth voice. Maybe a book, “Eating A Way Through Anchorage” by I. M. Phatt. Hobbit: The Simpson house, mom thinks she had seen it before but even though she isn’t afraid of most colors, thinks that would be a bit manic to have lived in. Hope BDS, Masquers and Nana get hot water soon (not get in hot water).
Have a saturating Saturday š (Wrapping, shopping, entertaining, raining, white shitake, resting or whatever).
9:38 am on December 21st, 2013
Good morning all.
9:47 am on December 21st, 2013
Good morning from the Prudential Mall in Boston. 15 minutes til the show opens and the hoards of customers charge in waving fistfuls of cash and credit cards.
And 80% of them NEED Native American jewelry.
We are nothing if not positive.
9:54 am on December 21st, 2013
Good luck T & G’s maw. Lots of buyers are coming your way.
What is it with the hot water heaters. Looks like ours might have gone out too. It was put in in 2004 or 2005, which makes it 8 or 9 years old. Is that all the longer they last? Ours has not had heavy use, so it is a bit surprising.
9:58 am on December 21st, 2013
Barb (and Maggie) Dawson and I are still talking about it but (so far) it would be early in the spring. About the second week of March right after we get home from AK. This is to suit Dawson’s itinerary and Dad’s birthday. It would certainly make for a busy time in Plunderland.
So far it is all talk, no action. I have talked with Mollypop’s Mom who suggests a side trip to Niagara Falls (and to the Canadian side-get your passport renewed) And after that a trip by car to Melanie’s and Amalia’s. Then back by van to MPM’s and back on the train.
So now you know where our thoughts are.
10:00 am on December 21st, 2013
Amalia, Did you remember the new batch of bears this weekend?
10:17 am on December 21st, 2013
Mom didn’t mean to start a hot water heater trend š Hers was 25 years old and put in when the house was built. Was “rode hard and put away wet”.
10:30 am on December 21st, 2013
HOH: Haven’t gotten in any hot water yet, but not for lack of trying. New heater is in place just needs one more connector part and then we are good to go.
Ours also was installed when the house was built in ’91. It has been a trooper lasting these past 22 plus years.
B&M: Believe the life expectancy is 15 years for most appliances (or as someone said…about 10 minutes past the warranty).
10:32 am on December 21st, 2013
Staff – last week’s show was SOOOOO bad, we were able to take the time between the shows to actually do Christmas shopping and wrapping etc. No need to bring any new inventory this week. We were well stocked. And we don’t even unpack the van between shows – everything but the suitcases, laundry and cooler stays right in the van so we CAN’T forget it.
With age comes wisdom.
Sometimes
10:34 am on December 21st, 2013
The next door neighbor just came over and it appears that the pilot light was off. He restarted it, so let’s see what happens from here. Fingers and paws crossed.
Staff, that would be workable for Barb too so keep us posted.
HOH, your expression is one we have used here. Refers, of course, to a horse who wasn’t cooled down properly. Years ago a guy Barb knew who was trying to be cool, said “He was rode wet and put up dry”. LOL
10:38 am on December 21st, 2013
Seems English can be a foreign language…even to some native speakers š
10:38 am on December 21st, 2013
BTW, How is Fern?
10:42 am on December 21st, 2013
Why does anyone need to heat up hot water anyway, if it’s already hot?
Anyway. … A gathering sounds like fun. We all need to renew passports here, mine’s just expired. ‘and Melanie’s and Alena’s have also expired. But Melanie’s aid has been talking about all of us going to Niagara Falls. I haven’t been since the one time Melanie took me in 1999. Wow, what an amazing place! While we’re not all that far, it takes some planning and forethought to get Melanie going for travel these days. I mean, outside of the passport issue.
And…Ray Price. I’ve always like Ray Price. I expect Melanie thinks he’s far too old school for her liking, but I’ve always been kind of on the same page as Bernie when it comes to my country music. This modern crap is mostly garbage if you ask me. Which, of course, yu did not. This about sums it up for me:

Man is it ever hard to find a good washboard player.
10:46 am on December 21st, 2013
Good morning, everyone!
My boys are satisfied with their appearance on the Tricia show. I haven’t heard all the details, but “Chad is not the father Jace, and Breena has been faithful”.
Yikes, imagine airing your private affairs on TV for a lousy $350.
Unbelievable. At any rate, it will air sometime during the second week of January.
I’ll let you know.
10:51 am on December 21st, 2013
Tupper&Gilly: This would seem to be the Best Weekend for Last Minute Shoppers. May they all gather ’round your booth with ooohs and aahs and wallets full of cash.
Thinking of Ros, Sadie, Fern and those under the Quilt. Sending Powerful Positive Healing thoughts to all.
Our Beautiful Winter Snow has mostly melted overnight with the rain and warmer temperatures. Perhaps it will not be a White Christmas after all.
10:51 am on December 21st, 2013
Wolfie…wow…unbelievable. Only $350? Well, $350 and I suppose spiffy hotel accommodations. And a trip to New York. Or somewhere. But still. Couldn’t pay me enough.
11:04 am on December 21st, 2013
Thanks, Wolfie. The show will be fun to watch.
Buddy&Leno: Opry style was never Mom’s thang but these days it is sounding better & better.
B&M: Sounds like it may be a simple solution to your water heater problem. We had thought of replacing only the elements in ours but, considering its remaining life expectancy, (a few days, hours?) opted to get a new heater instead.
11:32 am on December 21st, 2013
Buddy, Mom agrees with you about country music. The new stuff mostly sucks. We listen to the classic country music station.
I am also a Texan, but mom is not.
Ray Price was one of the country music greats. sniff
11:37 am on December 21st, 2013
English is a foreign language to me but it isn’t because I am from Texas. It is because I am a Siber.
Royals, best of luck at the show this weekend. Paws crossed that these shoppers realize that time is running out for them and they need to spend, spend, spend.
11:38 am on December 21st, 2013
Wow! We just got a box from Wolfie! Thanks Wolfie! Delish!
11:40 am on December 21st, 2013
I should clarify that it was not the box which was delish. It was rather the contents of said box. I expect that the box is not very tasty at all.
11:41 am on December 21st, 2013
Hey, know what you get if you play country music backward? You get your truck back, your girl back, your dawg back. Ok, done being a smart donkey for a while.
B&M, hope your hot water is fixed.
Mom is with Buddy on the baring one’s dirty linens for all to see. (We are all strange enough no need to let everyone else know.
12:00 pm on December 21st, 2013
Wolfie, Isn’t Cody Jace’s father? We are confused, and did they go on the show saying Breena was faithful or unfaithful? Inquiring minds want to know.
12:01 pm on December 21st, 2013
Wolfie: Are we reading this correctly?—Baby Jace is not Chad’s?
T&G: Is this the same show that your folks met the Stormy Kromer lurker last year? We wonder if he still lurks.
B&M: Was it something we stole or didn’t steal that made you change your mind about coming north to Alaska? Now, we have these manners tha we’ve, er, borrowed from someone and we have no idea what to do with them.
12:35 pm on December 21st, 2013
Cody is Jace’s father, but for some reason he decided that Breena had been unfaithful with Chad. I guess he needed proof. This is the reason why Cody has (finally) decided to get professional help.
12:41 pm on December 21st, 2013
OK, think we got it – Chad is not Jace’s father, because Cody is. Maybe they were saying that Chad could be the father and then disproved it by the DNA testing. Oh boy, oh boy, Wolfie!
P & L, you didn’t do anything wrong. Barb realized last month how much she does not like to fly, and generally isn’t big on leaving home at all. Thinking about all the things that can go wrong with winter travel sort of freaked her out. And especially having to cope with it alone, at least till she makes it as far as Seattle, did a number on her confidence.
12:44 pm on December 21st, 2013
Barb, We were afraid that was going to happen when you had to fly in the bad weather. Carpola!
Wolfie, The show does sound interesting, in a funny sort of way.
12:55 pm on December 21st, 2013
Crazy Arms – the Cactus Blossoms from Mpls have a good version.

12:55 pm on December 21st, 2013
Did anyone notice all the bling and sparkle on Ray’s suit?
Yes, funny in a Jerry Springer sort of way. We still want to watch it, even though we turned in on yesterday and got a little taste of it. A very bad taste if you ask me.
Barb is in the kitchen doing some prep work for later. She is taking a salad and a cheesy potato dish to Jess and Josh’s this afternoon. She is taking a copy of The Sound and the Furry for Jessica’s mom for the gift exchange. She loves the books and has read all but the last one. Jessica is making a turkey and a standing rib roast. Yum. Maybe Barb will bring a doggy bag for moi.
12:59 pm on December 21st, 2013
Sammie and Loulou got a nice Christmas card in the email today.
12:59 pm on December 21st, 2013
Where were the Cactus Blossoms being recorded? It looks like someone’s basement or garage?
1:08 pm on December 21st, 2013
Hmmm. RIP Ray Price.
Our furnace is out. Amazingly, the man who lives in this house is here to take charge. I’m going into the bedroom where we have a heater. The last time this happened (of course on a weekend) the man who lives in this house was gone and I had trouble finding a heater man. They were all out in the bush working for oil and gas companies. Grump!
1:13 pm on December 21st, 2013
Barb!…Someone here feels the same way about Winter flying….grunt!…Also Spring, Summer and Fall flying,…wheeze!
Postal!…Someone has finally come back from her very last visit to the Postal Office…wheeze!…It was not too bad because they had 3 people working the front desk. Usually there is one poor soul trying to take care of a room full of grumpy people….gurgle!…But today, everyone was in a good mood because the line moved along merrily…snort!
1:13 pm on December 21st, 2013
Dawson, get your mucklucks, hats, mittens, down jacket and blankts and get to that bedroom until the HOUSE is heated. You will turn into a Dawsoncicle otherwise.
1:15 pm on December 21st, 2013
Cards!….Oh!Oh!…I got a card that I have to post a photo of…heh!heh!….Hold on this will take a while…grunt!

Happy Solstice everyone: Hope this works

Buddy!…snort!
2:03 pm on December 21st, 2013
Ribbons!…I am helping my friend with ribbon today…snort!snort!…Oh what fun we have. I especially like sitting on the end of the ribbon just when she needs it….chuffle!…She puts everyone’s gift in a big pile and then ties them all together with a long ribbon, which I am sitting on…heh!heh!…I give a little of myself to each gift…snorkel!
2:05 pm on December 21st, 2013
Buddy! That was hysterical. Mukluks, and might I add, jalapenos.
2:09 pm on December 21st, 2013
Buddy, you find some funny stuff.
2:10 pm on December 21st, 2013
Well CARP!
Last week was a snowstorm. This week- a bomb scare in the mall. We have to evacuate.
2:11 pm on December 21st, 2013
Loved it, Buddy!
2:12 pm on December 21st, 2013
Amalia, that is terrible. I am worrit!
2:16 pm on December 21st, 2013
CHobbit! It is an extraordinary video. Thank you for posting it.
Buddy&Leno: Heh, heh…passing time waiting for the bus.
2:28 pm on December 21st, 2013
Royal Mum: What’s this…Now a bomb scare? What Sicko would do such a thing?
When Nana worked in the Ahmanson Towers on Wilshire Blvd in L.A. bomb threats were the norm. The British Consulate was in the building and they were constantly being targeted. Employees were promptly ordered to the parking lot across the street until the bomb squad had determined it was a false alarm.
Hopefully this situation will be cleared up quickly as well.
2:32 pm on December 21st, 2013
HOH, Here is a cake for days when you can’t come up with an adjective.
2:34 pm on December 21st, 2013
What’s this? We just got home, and read that T&G’s folks had to evacuate the show? Oh my! Hope they can come back in soon.
Blubber blubber gulashes!
2:54 pm on December 21st, 2013
What next! It is probably a false alarm, but better to be safe.
Certainly won’t help the sales though.
Potato casserole is in the oven. As soon as it is done Barb is heading out. Hopefully she will be able to drive home later. If not Josh will have to drive her home. So far snow is holding off and mail roads are salted.
3:02 pm on December 21st, 2013
Macy, That cake looks good….don’t care what it does or does not say. “Have a nice day” is one of mom’s big pet peeves in this country.
Buddy, That is funny!
I’m almost sure there is no bomb, but it takes law enforcement forever to clear a scene like that. GAH
3:02 pm on December 21st, 2013
Tupper&Gilly: Paws crossed here.
Macy: You said it.
MollyPop’s Mom: As soon as we looked at the envelope we KNEW who it was from! This is one that will NOT be thrown away.
TYB: Love the card you sent to them!
3:10 pm on December 21st, 2013
Happy Winter Solstice to All!
I’m happy because winter is officially here. Mom and Dawson are happy because the sun is on its way back North.
Dawson has reason to celebrate. Mom does not….not living here where the darkness isn’t that long.
3:13 pm on December 21st, 2013
Bah-Humbug!…Thieves and now Bombers…grump!…Can this Christmas get any worse?….wheeze!
3:17 pm on December 21st, 2013
Macy, just the sentiment I think of but am afraid to say. We have a reputation to live up too.
T&G’s Mama: be safe.
B&M: Our mom is doing potatoes au gratin tonight…twins?
It’s a Siber H solstice š
Hope Dawson is warm (and heated).
3:18 pm on December 21st, 2013
Siber-H: Joining you in celebration of the Winter Solstice.
Seems odd that while it is the First Day of Winter…at the same Time the Days will be getting Longer…a Promise of Spring.
3:24 pm on December 21st, 2013
Hooray!
The Winter Solstice has arrived! Thank you for that video, CHobbit, and Buddy&Leno your link with all the delicious words made me laugh.
The heat is on!
Bomb threat? Grrrr! I hope they catch whoever did that and punish them severely.
3:24 pm on December 21st, 2013
Bear!….Hippity-hop on over to your SDD like the jolly holly Bear that you are!…snort!
3:29 pm on December 21st, 2013
HOH, these potatoes are always requested, but contain almost nothing good for you. Potatoes, mayo, sour cream, Velveta cheese, green onions, baked and then topped with crumbled bacon.
Forgot to mention that we loved MPM’s stamp. Thanks for reminding us Bear.
Rio, We are trying to picture all the gifts connected by a long ribbon. How do people open the packages?
3:33 pm on December 21st, 2013
B&M: Maybe we could act out and then you’d have to come north to Alaska to tell us the straighten up an thieve right. If that plan b won’t work, we need to figure out how to wrap manners. We’re going to give Thomas a Christmas gift to Belle Starr.
We want the Royal’s folks to be safe. This is the most important thing, but We are upset that the Royal’s folks are going to miss out on making sells. This is their livelihood that is being played with if it is a false alarm.
3:36 pm on December 21st, 2013
Card!….Here is a card I received today – never mind that it was addressed to Beau also. This guy looks like me, so therefore…..snort!
Front!
3:37 pm on December 21st, 2013
Inside!…A Pop-up!…heh!heh!…I love it!
3:38 pm on December 21st, 2013
Rio: So therefore, you should be paid royalties for the use of your pug shot.
3:41 pm on December 21st, 2013
No bomb( of course). Just a shoplifter, trying to get away with stealing during the evacuation. But of course, a lot of people wnt home.
…..sigh…..
Rio – lift your sad little Pug heart in joy. It is NOT Christmas that is bad. It is the commercialism and greed and snarking that is bad. Oh sure, we would love to have a shopping season that would make life comfortable until spring, but if it isn’t meant to be, we will cope.
But Christmas is lovely and wonderful and joyous and happy. It is a time to remember loved ones and smiles and it is a time to do annonymous and fun good deeds.
In other words, don’t let the Scrooges get you down. It’s YOUR Christmas and we wish you a Merry one, you grumpy old pug, you

We are fine. All is safe. Explanation is being moderated – no idea why. Hope it shows up later.

T”s Mama: Bet it has something to do with Homeland Security.

Glad you are safe.
Rio, that card looks like it could have come from Chet!
Barb is off to the Christmas party. Later folks.
4:00 pm on December 21st, 2013
Bomber!….I bet Golinka tracked down that bomber-dude and drove her van over him several times….heh!heh!…At least that’s what I imagine her doing…chuffle!
4:06 pm on December 21st, 2013
Tupper’s Mama: Now let the buying begin!
4:18 pm on December 21st, 2013
That card is adorable. Rio, why do you look so scared?
Thank Dog the Royals’ folks are safe. Sell, baby, sell.
4:21 pm on December 21st, 2013
Rio: Exciting card! You were going to post a picture of the crap gift you received at the party the other night.
I’m off into the fresh air – for a very short time. Wow! The sunshine is bright. š
4:30 pm on December 21st, 2013
Dawson: Glad to hear your heat is on. Still awaiting hot water here. Gah.

Ummmm….. Just heard from Melanie. Their beloved Ros felt the need to cross the bridge today. Not sure that Melanie will be around this evening. She has suffered so many losses in such a short time.
I asking all of you to send my best friend your support, even if it is just with a prayer in your heart. We need to lift her with our love.
Thanks
4:53 pm on December 21st, 2013
Holy Moly! A bomb scare at the Pru? Hope there is still an opportunity for people to spend cash at the Royal booth.
Thanks, youse guys who I have received cards from! The HOH card was funny, and I, too, loved the stamp on MPM’s card.
Dawson and Masquers, hope you get your heat back soon!
Wolfie, Thanks. I received Wolfie’s Best Toffee today! Yipeee!
4:57 pm on December 21st, 2013
My heart fell to my knees when I read about Ros. So much loss and uncertainty. Love to Melanie, Zoe, and YSAS.
Our girl Angie took Holly to the V E T this morning and she had biopsies. The Dr. didn’t think there were any C cells in there, but they have to go back in two weeks. Prayers for our little Holly.
Holly loves her babies.
4:59 pm on December 21st, 2013
Ros!….Awwww phooey…sniffle!… Poor Melanie and Zoe. I have a lump in my thick throat thinking of them….snuffle!
4:59 pm on December 21st, 2013
Melanie and Zoe, So sorry to hear the news about Ros. Please know that I am sending loving thoughts to you, and my prayers are with you.
5:01 pm on December 21st, 2013
Our Hearts are with Melanie and Zoe today.
Sending Thoughts of Peace & Loving Prayers their way.
5:02 pm on December 21st, 2013
Aw, Macy. Sending loving hugs to Holly. My eyes are getting misty, and my heart hurts.
5:04 pm on December 21st, 2013
Howlers!….I look worrit because I am sliding on my @ss through the snow….grunt!…And my kibbles are completely frozen…wheeze!

They walk among us. Scary thought.
5:06 pm on December 21st, 2013
Holly!…Oh no. Not another one sick…sniffle!…The good news is she has a great bed and a lot of toys…snort!
5:38 pm on December 21st, 2013
Melanie and Zoe: I am so very sorry to hear the sad news. Roz is with her other pack, the new ones are happy to see her.
5:41 pm on December 21st, 2013
Melanie and Zoe — Words do not begin the express the sadness that this latest news brings. It has been such a difficult few months for the two of you in so many respects. But please know that whatever comfort can be offered up, you need to look no further than to your Plunderer friends here at Chet’s Blog.
5:42 pm on December 21st, 2013
Melanie, I’m so sorry to hear this news. Prayers and positie vibes to you. We lost Chet at the beginning of this year…it was a very rapid decline. Never easy to see them go.
5:46 pm on December 21st, 2013
Safe passage confirmed. Ros is well again and with many loving friends on this side of the Bridge.
5:59 pm on December 21st, 2013
Oh, my heart. My heart hurts for Melanie and Zoe.
But it’s true, what Wookie said. There was a huge celebration today, with games and happy romping and cheese that grows on trees. I know this because Teddy told me so.
Still, our hearts are heavy on this side of the bridge.
6:28 pm on December 21st, 2013
Melanie, Zoe and YSAS: our hearts are with you. It is never easy even when we know ahead of time. You are in our thoughts. Know you are loved by friends far and near.
Holly: Pawsitive thoughts are coming to you.
6:41 pm on December 21st, 2013
So much sadness. This latest is just too much. Oh melanie and Zoe, our hearts hurt for you. How can you be expected to go thru so much hurt? And yet, you both are so strong, i know you will cling to each other and you will endure. Know that we are with you in spirit.
Macy, why did Holly get biopsies? Please forgive us our memory loss. It is just that there is so much, so much.
6:42 pm on December 21st, 2013
Our love and support going out to Melanie and Zoe. Hugs
Macy, Prayers for Holly. She sure look cozy in that picture.
Darwin awards…Those are funny in a sick sort of way but very scary.
6:54 pm on December 21st, 2013
Holly has several lumps on various parts of her body. Angie had them looked at last year, but that V E T said they were nothing. This year the new V E T said she wanted to biopsy them.
Holly is a chug, chiwawa pug, and is the reason we got Belle, who is nowhere near as cute as Holly. Too much pug, and not enough wawa, just my opinion.

Listening to more Ray Price reminded me of Bernie’s taste in music,. Which reminded me of this song that would confuse Chet. Merry Christmas!

Also, yay for power outages! We have one of those right now.

The Buffalo Bills are all coming in now. They stay here the night before a home game. They have a big dinner in a conference room and then a big breakfast the next day. My neighbors tell me there are usually about 40 or 50 fans waiting for them in the lobby in the morning. Not me – I’m looking for Pat LaFontaine.

Macy!…grunt!
7:28 pm on December 21st, 2013
Hotel!…Molly’s Maw, what are you living at a Sports Hotel or sumthing? …sniff!
8:55 pm on December 21st, 2013
Just got back from the party and heard the news about Ros. Our hearts are heavy thinking about all Melanie and Zoe endured this year. It is just too much. Wookie’s report did make us feel a little better, just knowing that Ros is romping with the rest of her pack and feeling like a playful puppy again.
Keeping good thoughts for Holly, who is more Wawa and less Pug, according to Macy.

We need something silly right now, and “baby” Darah is it. She has always been a mama’s girl and not adventurous. Tonight we’ve had lots of wind, so she hid under the POP cages and barked…er, honked. Mom took her to the bedroom to try to calm her. Lying on bed when the darling dozer jumped up and HONKED. On looking, mom saw a cobweb from the ceiling was frightening her.Mmm chicken dog or bad housekeeping (mom knows the answer).
9:29 pm on December 21st, 2013
Silly!…We are watching “Pillow Talk” with Doris Day and Rock Hudson right now. If that’s not silly enough, I don’t know what is…grunt!
9:32 pm on December 21st, 2013
Buffalo Sabres are playing Boston right now. What a game! It’s like I went to a fight and a hockey game broke out. But it’s those darn Boston dirty guys.
9:37 pm on December 21st, 2013
Sammie!…snort!heh!heh!…Tell me, is Molly’s Maw mad at me?..sniff!….She never talks to me and dismisses all my questions. It’s not like I have that many burning questions for her either …grunt!…But she ignores me completely…wuffle!…Although, the truth is I am used to being ignored…chorkel!
9:43 pm on December 21st, 2013
Rio:Don’t know about those watching the Sabres, but we find you hard to ignore you pugnacious pugster, you.
9:47 pm on December 21st, 2013
And on that pugilistic note, we will say nighty night š
9:48 pm on December 21st, 2013
Rio, I’m sorry, I didn’t think your question if I was living in a sports hotel was a real question. I will say it’s a hotel that has apartments on the top floors. They made a deal with the Bills for two years to have them stay here before home games.
Having Pat LaFontaine live here is not really a sports thing. Pat probably thought like I did that this was a nice place to live. He has a big three-bedroom apartment with all the amenities. We have a swimming pool and a restaurant with room service. Housekeeping is available. Indoor parking. All he has to do is watch out for me!
9:57 pm on December 21st, 2013
I have been thinking about Roz and decided that there were so many of the Plunderers friends up ‘there’ that we can probably have a second branch ‘over the rainbow’
I know Roz was welcomed with open paws by her many friends. Although it is hard to say goodbye down here we will never forget those who have gone before.
I am glad Roz didn’t suffer too long down here and know she is running and leaping like a young puppy in her new playground. Hugs to Melanie and Clarkson for their loss.
sniff

Sports!…Anything I ask about Sports is usually a real deal…snort!…I know one thing for sure, Molly’s Maw is very RICH! Or has a nice retirement fund…heh!heh!
10:12 pm on December 21st, 2013
Molly’s-Maw!….I am glad, at least as glad as a grumpy pug can be, that you are still talking to me…chuffle!
Weekend!…I have to say this weekend has been argument free so far…sniff!…Everyone is being nice to each other and avoiding those “buttons” that when pushed things go awry very quickly…sniff!…Speaking of which, I wonder how ole Fern is doing tonight….snort! …She has not posted today. This could be a concern….whiffle!cluck!
10:19 pm on December 21st, 2013
Barb: Nice party pictures on Facebookie!
10:20 pm on December 21st, 2013
We have been concerned about Fern too. But then Barb is The Chicken Lady.
Incidently, Staff, Barb is feeling very, very special since you sent us two cards this year. Both were great cards.
10:23 pm on December 21st, 2013
Barb!…You got TWO cards from Staff?…sniff!…I have not received even ONE card from her….yet….sob!sob!…I really thought Staff was a friend of mine. Well, now I know the truth…sniffle!
10:26 pm on December 21st, 2013
Party!….What party?…grunt!…I am feeling completely left-out of everything tonight. Maybe I should just sign-off and call it a bad-day…grump!sneeze!…Beau is upstairs sleeping on his back without a care in the world. He has the right idea….wuffle!
10:33 pm on December 21st, 2013
Rio – we will join you in the Bad Day Sulkies and just go to bed and bury our heads under the pillows. We may even join you in a grumble and a snort.
10:38 pm on December 21st, 2013
Golinka!…Sob!Sob!Sob!…It has just been ONE of those days…sniffle!snort!…At least we still have Christmas to look forward to, eh?…snuffle!
Oh!…That reminds me. Here is a photo of my friends latest crap gift…grunt!…She is like a magnet for crap gifts…heh!heh!
Gift!…You tell me what this is …gah!
10:41 pm on December 21st, 2013
My computer says it’s “img2075”, so I’m guessing it’s one of those.
10:41 pm on December 21st, 2013
A yellow submarine for hamsters?
10:42 pm on December 21st, 2013
Buddy!…snort!sneeze!
10:48 pm on December 21st, 2013
Hamster!…I measured and not even one half of a hamster could fit comfortably in this thing…sniff!

11:07 pm on December 21st, 2013
CHobbit!…Your description is accurate because it is short. A small water proof container that hold hardly anything…sniff!…This thing is only a 11.50 gift. The gift was supposed to be at LEAST 15.00…grump!….What a cheap skate whoever brought it to the party…sniff!…Of course my friend picked it out of the pile…grrrr!
11:18 pm on December 21st, 2013
The Otter Box is for your phone. They are great if you are boating, or skiing or anything wet. We would like it.
When “people” refuse to give out their address, they don’t get cards, snort, hufflepuff
11:19 pm on December 21st, 2013
Rio – a submarine for a teeny hamster?
Hey- look on the bright side. You could have a bunch of hot wings and beer, and then do a Pugish “emination” into the box, seal it up and send it to someone special to open up.
Tee hee
And good night.
11:19 pm on December 21st, 2013
Oops, this is not the one for phones, sorry. Still useful.
11:20 pm on December 21st, 2013
Re-Gift!….Next year, if they have a gift exchange, my friend is going to wrap this Otter Box up beautifully and someone else can be stuck with it….snort!
11:20 pm on December 21st, 2013
We are saddened to hear that hearts are hurting tonight. However, we know first paw that our dear Ros is restored on the other side of the Bridge. The veil will be thinned for as long as Melanie, Zoe and YSAS need. For now, we hold them in our virtual, but collective paws.
Holly: Wyatt would be honored to be your pillow. Prayers are being said for you, dear girl.
11:22 pm on December 21st, 2013
Macy, we saw the pictures too, but of course can’t upload them. How did you see them so quickly? DIL Jessica did a really great job on the dinner. This was for her side of the family, but they extended the invite to Barb also. It was a nice time.
Rio, I bet Staff sent us your card by mistake.
11:23 pm on December 21st, 2013
Address!…The ones who have my address, have my address…sniff!…I do not expect cards from those who do not have my address …grunt!
11:28 pm on December 21st, 2013
Barb, are you on Facebook? if so, click on the picture. Then when it comes up in a new page, right click, save as… there you are!
11:29 pm on December 21st, 2013
White!…This little Otterbox is truly a White Elephant…heh!heh!…All’s well that ends with a good name…snort!
11:32 pm on December 21st, 2013
Barb, check your SDD.
Staff, Barb got MY card!
11:33 pm on December 21st, 2013
Macy!…snort!…heh!
11:41 pm on December 21st, 2013
Crap!…Beau is down here begging us to come up and go to bed…sniff!…What the heck? He always goes to bed early – we used to stay up really late. Now we go to bed early….grump!…That Beau!
Macy!…If you really want my address I will send it to youse…heh!heh!..I never thought you had any interest in an old, smelly pug like myself…chuffle!
11:43 pm on December 21st, 2013
Smelly, old pugs—is there any other kind?
11:52 pm on December 21st, 2013
So, about the cards. Yup, problems big time. I sent out cards in the packages of those who won my auction items. Then I forgot who got them and just started at the top of my list. Then I got stalled and never got past the B’s. However the list is in wonderful alphabetical order.
Yesterday someone posted that it was the last day to mail before the holiday and I just lost it completely. Soooo. Oh well.
I did get a few cards here. One from Nana which made me very happy. Maybe I will send out Valentines Day holiday cards.
Sob sob sob.
11:54 pm on December 21st, 2013
should I put the list on Dishlickers?
12:11 am on December 22nd, 2013
Staff, We loved getting your cards. You can send us 2 every year if you want.
Now we are saying good night.
12:20 am on December 22nd, 2013
We just celebrated The Solstice in the traditional Husky way. We had a good old Howlfest in the snow-covered firlds. It was the best Welcome Solstice ever,

Howdy just wanted to give you a quick heads up. The text in your content seem to be running off the screen in Safari. I’m not sure if this is a formatting issue or something to do with web browser compatibility but I thought I’d post to let you know. The style and design look great though! Hope you get the issue resolved soon. Cheers

Obviously, everyone will be quick to point the finger at
the restaurant, but it is fairly clear, even at this early stage that it was an accident.
Whilst they do not completely block the light, they allow you to soften it during the day so that you can still enjoy the sunlight without it being too bright or harsh.

This excellent website really has all of the info I wanted concerning this subject
and didn’t know who to ask.
