Spitting (More): From Dog On It

Nixon spat in the dirt. “I can get you another one, even more beat up.”

“Yeah?” said Bernie. “How much?”

“Don’t have it yet,” said Nixon. “I’m just saying the possibility’s out there.”

Or something like that. I wasn’t really listening, on account of Nixon being a tobacco chewer, which made his spit pretty interesting. I went over and sniffed at the dirt where the glob had landed. It smelled like Bernie’s breath in the morning, if he’d been smoking the night before and hadn’t brushed his teeth yet, but even stronger, with an added bitterness. Normally at a moment like this I’d move on to an experimental lick or two. Not this time, amigo.

Welcome Hooded Dude, Mango and Buster (possibly), and Halloween cat (who may be Buster).

Tonight: Halloween, my least favorite of all the human holidays.

And don’t forget – a new Friend of the Month will be chosen tomorrow, so today’s the last day to upload into the Friends of Chet gallery. Prizes galore! are not in the cards!

    Since baseball is over, why are we still on the subject of spitting?

    Chet’s doing it by request. I wonder if he read that comment of yours wrong!

    No joy tonight here in our little village. The PTB moved the trick or treating to the main village and in the community center. Safer for the children, but no fun for the Pack!

    Morning all!

    Just one more baseball observation (sorry, B) Not too much spitting anymore, but lots of bubble gum chewing. And, lastly..how luckily were we that the winter storm waited until the Series was over…that and the fortuitous postponing of game six so Rio could attend. Kool. Okay..now I’m done.

    Chet: You were wise not to lick this one. We used to have a snuff chewer and spitter at the hospital. He was blind to boot and often missed the “spit can”. This made me nauseous.
    I’m having computer problems so will be incommunicado for a week. Sob. sob. Happy Halloween.

    A quick Note of Thanks to Wolfie for getting that Proficient Blurring Certificate to me so quickly yesterday, enabling me to join Trigger at the Raccoon Stakeout. THE Master Proficient Blurrer, he must be a very wealthy guy these days – what with traveling around the country giving seminars in the Art of Blurring.

    Oh, Jeez Louise, a week without the Awesome Dawson! YIKES.

    Thanks for hoping all our candy will be chocolate. Umm, is there any other kind? JUST IN CASE, we have a trick or treater (haven’t had one for FIVE years) we have Rees’s Peanut Butter Cups. Dan is hoping for no T&Ts since he’s already open the bag and eating them.

    Back to cleaning. My sitting room/dressing room is now dustless. I have put a filter over the heat vent and the dust. Next is my bedroom/computer area.

    While we are on the subject of thank you’s…A big shout-out to Franklin and Mattie of the RiverBears. Franklin for telling me of Mattie’s talents and Mattie herself for teaching me her Teleportation techniques. Good job my friends!

    P.S. What some of you might not realize is that some very big dogs, such as myself – the 100+ pounders, sometimes have difficulty with the blurring. Wolfie tried to give me private lessons in exchange for Counter-Surfing suggestions, but somehow I never was able to master it.

    Melanie: You are a busy beaver today! Perhaps someone here should take note and follow suit. BTW have you heard from the Royals this morning?

    We are going to check out Facebookie then will get to work. Lots to do today. Have a feeling there are many To Do Things already fading from memory.

    I have just heard from the Royals. They are having an “interesting” time. Still no power or land line phones. The town is working on getting some of the businesses on King Street up and running. The townspeople are being told up to a week.

    Everyone is fine. Though Gramps needs to get gas in the car. Note to self: Keep cars full of gas this season.

    She has heard from the CL. CL was all concerned that she couldn’t fly into CT from DC on Sunday. She ended up in Vermont. Drove down today and was suprised that no one was at CLL and there was no power. And she couldn’t get ahold of the person who was supposed to be there. So she called Mum to complain.

    Mum explained that the entire town was out of power and had been for two days. The reason she couldn’t get a hold of that person was the land lines were down. CL thought for a minute and said, well I’m going back to Vermont and babysit. So Mum could just be in charge at the CLL.

    Mum said she wasn’t leaving the house until the power was back on and the tree was off her roof. And it was up to CL to figure things out, but she didn’t think the CLL was going to be getting power any time soon.

    What an idiot. Anyhoo, they are now eating the things out of the freezer.

    She asks for prayers for electricity and a heat wave.

    Dan is slowing down a bit. He’s sleeping a lot and enjoys seeing people. Before the snow, he was going for his walks. He should be able to do that again by the end of the week. He loves that people are enjoying White Wings. I have to admit that’s my favorite of all his books.

    GOOD NEWS! OTAS and F are now HOMEOWNERS! Of course, the house has no power right now because of the snowstorm, but hey! IT’S THEIRS!

    Also for those of you who are “Doctor Who” fans. The following youtube video is a special for the end of David Tennant’s time as the Doctor!

    Masquers: Let’s hope Wolfie has an income stream. I have the feeling he made good use of his mom’s AmEx card while at the game with the guys.

    Think of the Golinka Gang, I am very grateful we have a woodstove for when our power goes out. I hope they will have power restored sooner rather than later.

    Happy Halloween, Plunderers!

    Crazy!….How does someone like that operate a business? It just amazes me….sniff!… Okay because we are talking about CLL I am allowed to share one story about the place my friend goes to. This is the same place that Stinky Mama works at….heh!… It was last Saturday when my friend finished her historic 4 circuits of training…sniff!….She decided to get on the scale and see if there had been any weight loss since it was coming up on a month since she joined this outfit….grunt! …Well, she weighed 10 lbs less than she did at the beginning of Oct, according to this scale. She remarked on it to the gal behind the counter as there were only those two there at the time….snort!….The gal behind the counter asked, “My goodness. How did you do it?”….heh!… My friend just looked at her and shook her head….sniff! … I mean, come on. …sniff!

    Bella: Hmmm…Have we heard from Wolfie lately? I hope he didn’t get into too much hot water over the exorbitant Amex card charges.
    Siber did tell him to destroy the incriminating evidence. However, he may have inadverently let it slip when texting. Those darn no limit cards just let you keep charging and charging and…..

    Rio: You should be proud of your friend. I enlarged the photo she sent—the detail of the cards is beautiful.

    Flakes are starting to fall, slow and large. I am working from home today because of the snow in the forecast; the expected snowfall is much less than others experienced over the weekend, but drivers turn into funny things on the first real snowfall of the year.

    Rio: Wonderful potholders are amongst the treasures Staff contributed to the MMCS. She has used some great holiday fabric for her projects that she has saved for something special and some fabric you just might recognize. And, what’s that? A couple of shiny items, too?

    Snowhook’s SDD inbox has been filling up, up, up! Many of you have been busy, thoughtful and very generous in the items you’ve contributed. If I’m not mistaken, there is a surprise or two in the future!

    Oley Howler-ween! Good one!
    Melanie: That is big news for OTAS & F. They must be jumping up and down about now. Congratulations and Happy Housewarming.
    I can’t wait to see Staff’s seven wonderful creations and Rio’s friend’s boxes of cards. One stop shopping at the MMCS. You can’t beat that! (Egads, did the Royal Mum send her items before the power went out?)

    Hmmm, Masquers. I hadn’t thought of that. I have pictures but no descriptions and she’s really cutting her phone call times. The last time was just 3 minutes. That’s a record for us.

    I’d ask her, but she does have some stuff on her mind. Or at least on her roof.

    I have just finished the winter cleaning for my two rooms. I use a fan for white noise and after looking at it, decided I better clean it. I did clean it before summer but . . .

    So I’m blaming all the dog fur in it on the Pack. I’m also blaming them for the long strands of gray hair . . . LOL

    I checked with American Express, and luckily, I am not responsible for Wolfie’s bill from Game 6. He is over 18 and if they were silly enough to give them a Black Card, well, it’s up to them to collect. When the game went into extra innings, he started buying beer for everyone in the stadium!! He could just about buy a house for what he spent!

    Barb is checking in to say hey. At work today, filling in for the regular gal who has two trick-or-treaters and wanted the day off.

    Did anyone see Today Show this morning? The group always goes all out for Halloween. This year they all were in costumes for the Royal wedding. Matt was Prince William and Ann Curry was Kate. Meredith Vieira did a surprise appearance as Queen Elizabeth. She was walking 5 Corgis-4 sable and white and one tri color. The dogs behaved just fine, but Matt accidently pulled her hat and white wig off. It was histerical!

    Thanks to all of you for good thoughts. We will catch up on the blog in a little while. Meanwhile, still have no plans to go to CLL tomorrow. If CL doesnt care enough to stay in town and go to work, we don’t need to go either!
    So there!
    Actually, there will be lots of cleanup to do and insurance adjusters to talk to. By the way, did you know that in this state, even if you told your neighbor that a tree on their property was endangering your property, unless said tree was more than 60 percent rotted out YOUR NEIGHBOR DOES NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR DAMAGE TO YOUR PROPERTY?!?!?!
    What’s up with that?

    T&G: Fancy meeting you here! I’m so glad your electricity was restored. I feared that your mum would try to convince the Herb Kats to ship her somewhere warm.

    Howlers: Good to see you, too!

    It would take a brave child to trick or treat at our house—a half mile long, unlit driveway that turns through the shrouds of trees. If a kid makes it up our driveway without running away, I’ll empty out our cupboards for him or her.

    T & G, Hate to tell you this, but that is usually the case – your own insurance pays for your damages, even tho it is your nieghbor’s tree. Usually he has to have exibited gross negligence for your company to even attempt to subrogate back to his company. The good news is that your h.o. ploicy will have an occurance deducitble, so only 1 ded. will apply to your claim, even if there is more than 1 cause. Most people carry a $500 ded, hope yours is not higher.

    I mentioned it earlier – you missed Meredeth Vieira as Queen Elizabeth this morning on Today. She came on camera with 5 Corgis on leash, all very well behaved.

    Bella, none of the kids walk to Trick or Treat here. So our 1/4mile dark drive shouldn’t be an obstacle, but still…no Howlerweeners here so far, darn it. Looks like Mom & Pop will have to eat a lot of candy. We can’t because its all chocolate.

    7:49 pm on October 31st, 2011

    Halloween night is drawing to a close here in Chevy Chase and not a minute too soon. Boy am I beat — greeting all those kids is even more work that herding quilters. Mom made me a special Halloween scarf to wear for the occasion (maybe a photo to post tomorrow if they came out okay). We actually get a lot of foot traffic here — maybe upwards of 200 kids. We are also well known in the neighborhood as “the full size candy bar house”‘ although the treat de jour this year, by popular demand, seems to be Skittles Sours (full size again). Not too much left over and dad will probably take the residual into work tomorrow — the hungry heifers will eat anything.
    Glad to hear that T&G and the Herbs are okay and that OH is back on the air too. I think mom is “cooking” something special up for dad; don’t know what yet, but I’ll report back once I know for sure what it is. Wookie

    Rio: Junior is with the team. I don’t know if he’s training on the A or B team tonight, but he has been running with the former the past few runs. He is a happy guy.

    WoooWheee!….We are both tired out tonight….sniff!… Right after she came home from the busy-place we went on the Brutal Walk nearly missing some early Trick or Treaters in our determined effort to get home…grunt!

    Gourmet!…I wonder what kind of Gourmet meal Debbie is cooking up for Wookies Paw…sniff!…If I know Wookie he will get his fair share of it too….heh!

    Missing!….Is it me or does it seem like a lot of regulars are missing today…grunt!

    Stars!…. I’m not sure about this turn of events….sniff!…For some weird reason she is watching Dancing With The Stars this season On Demand…grunt!…I’m not really into this show at all but I have no choice in the matter. We are watching the show from Oct. 4th I think, so we are a little behind…sniff! ….Anyways, that Chaz Bono is still in the competition. He (was a she) sounds just like his dad Sonny….wuffle!….Then there is the guy who got totally burned up in the war, but is a fantastic dancer….snort!

    Rio: AJ and team just arrived home. My sources confirm that Junior did in fact train with the A team today. I greeted the dogs when they got home. To make sure I knew he was there, Junior jumped up on the load of firewood I was trying to lift from the pile.

    Ok- kind of caught up, and mostly thawed out.
    Bella- we have the pics from Melanie and need to write descriptions. However, right now the only Internet is on the iPhone and I can’t go back in time to look at Commander Rio’s orders for how to submit the descriptions. Is it dimensions, description and price ? And can we get a little time leeway since making the deadline of tonight seems a little farfetched.
    Barb- wish we hD seen the Corgis on parade. Must have looked like when Natasha took everyone to the Big Vedding inCorgi disguises
    Yes, we do have $500 deductible. Carpola! Did Melanie mention that this is the 3rd tree from the (jungle-like, unkempt,trailer trash) neighbor’s yard that has landed on our property? This is by far the worst damage, but no matter what, we can’t do anything about it. So, we would like to invite each and every male Dog of the blog to blur in and Pee all over the neighbor’s yard. Siber- a few good holes would work too.
    Thanks all for good thoughts.
    And Rio – tell your friend we are really proud of her. WE know how she lost those pounds- HARD WORK! We are beginning to think that most folks who work for that company are just nuts. And we hope like heck it isn’t catching!

    T & G, OK if this is the 3rd time your neighbor’s trees have fallen in your yard, I think you might have a good case for him being liable. You still have to set up your claim with your own insurance, but if they feel they can get their money back they can go after his company. If they collect a % of the damage from your neighbor’s home insurance policy(under his liability part of his policy), then you get that same % of your deductible back. For example your ded. is $500. If his company assumes 50% responsibility and pays out 50% to your company, then your company would reimburse you $250.00. At least that would be the case in Illinois.

    Golinka!….My friend knew the story about the employee of “the company” would not get lost on you…heh!… Granted, my friend had never seen this gal before for some reason, but this gal totally thwarted another persons work-out on the day in question by talking to her the whole time she was there…grunt!… Although, the person working out was not really doing much in the way of working out. She seemed to enjoy talking on her cell phone when she wasn’t talking to the “trainer” while delicately lifting a leg here and there….guffaw!…My friend enjoys watching all these interaction while she is busting her butt…heh!heh!…The best part is I do not have to be there.

Rebeccer will be working with something called “Rolling Inventory”….heh!…As things sell she will re-stock the shelves with new donations…Woooo!….So keep em’ coming folks!…snort!

    Gulper!…I do not understand your latest remark…grunT!…What the hell are “dip shrugs”?….sniff!…And why would I have to do some extra ones…hmmm?

    Rio- dip shrug is the machine where you stand and pull the bar up and then push it down. At CLL we call it the “sexy sundress” machine cuz it works the back of the shoulders.
    As to why do some extra? Why not? (tee hee)
    Your friend’s club must be WAY different then ours. We don’t allow cell phones on the gym floor at all. Or in the stretch area.
    ( we are VERY strict, and our members love it)

    Appointment! …. Speaking of health, my friend says we can sleep in tomorrow because she has an appointment at 9:00am…wheeze! ….Good Night all! ….snort! ….I’m off to my warm soft bed for even longer than usual cuz I get to sleep in for an extra HOUR….woooooo!…heh!
