I got my Dad hooked on the cartoon channel...drove poor Mom up the wall. She
was a game show addict. She would even watch the reruns of the oldie shows.

When you are comprised of a household of mostly men you have to give a
little and watch some sports. I personally like the Olympic games. The Luge
is a cool race to the finish.

Well, OK, I've never heard of a _sheep_ being involved in a burger-joint

Took him back tonite for a recheck at the local vet instead of
his dermatologist. I should hear by Friday. The vet said it
might have been stress, because the specialist is t'other side
of the mountain, and the drive usually makes him carsick. Which
also means I don't feed him before the drive, which could also
have contributed to the high number.

Might as well cross my fingers and wait for Friday.

At least we solved the skin problem. His coat has grown back
completely and he's back to his handsome self.
