You could if you flew me out there first.

Refer to item two of my description of the weekend. Right after "Three day weekend," and before "No friends."

If I had money, I'd have friends. Odd how that works, eh? I'll be glad to go back to UT.

awwwie! you have three tooo!! i have three dogs.. but they dont look the same so everyone always asks if im a pet sitter
i have a poodle (black) an aussie (blue merle) and a terrier (my husbands cat dog- he acts like a cat) but we just took in a dog that acts like a dog so i guess it makes up for it!

I heard about them, Blue, but didn't watch them. My TV isn't attached to any antennae or cable. Why do you ask?

aussie = ACD, or aussie = Australian Shepherd?

I think slandered, she's not that tall, kind of looks like Lab body on shorter legs with muscular hind quarters, short hair. I actually got her from a pet store, and they said she was in a litter form there Schnauzer breeder, they even docked her tail.

They are taking applications for a new show called "Texas Ranch House" year 1867.

http://www.pbs.org/wnet/ranchhouse/index.html

I think it would be a really fun thing to do. Though they are looking to start filming this summer.

Some people have taken to calling ACDs Aussies too. And the word "Blue" made me wonder, since in their previous taxonomy as "Healers," ACDs were frequently called "Blue Healers." My dog is an aussie/border collie/Shetland Sheep Dog mix. We think.

RG, applications for the show are due by March 18th. So, not a lot of time to get them in if you are interested.

I got to say that was the hardest part of going to Burning Man last year, boarding the dog kids, I hadn't spent a night away from them for over 4 years for Lizzie and ever before for the other two.

i guess in someways i have it lucky.. my husband hasnt come to terms with the idea of burning man so he watches the pups!! I wish he would go with me.. but there is something that just seems wrong to force it on him.. i think he will go if and when he is ready for it.

i on the other hand I wanted to go forever when i first heard about it years ago and moving to california made it easier to go and finally made it home last year!

i miss my dogs whenever im away from them.. there alwyas there.. they sleep on our bed and everything so not having them around is definately noticed!

I would like to find someone to come into my home next time even if it's just morning and night to feed them and let them out,.. but they are shall we say kind of wild, so I don't know if I want to risk one of the neighborhood kids.

So, what do you guys think about the goings-on in the "Love..." thread?

I don't know anymore, I do think E-playa is an important part of DVD's life, and he has to be aware of the negativity and the broader effect on the community his actions and those reacting to him have had. It's a ghost town in here. I think he honestly does want to make peace, and will try to tone himself down, but whether he can be successful at self control is going to be the question.

Um ... well, I've got this idea for a something like a wire topiary. But, I'd like to use a larger gauge wire and soldering would look better than trying to wrap it together.
