this computer is set to drive me nuts
 
i am sorry to vent at you all-- but maybe someone can help
all i  want is some nice music--
so for $3.99 a month i am promised broadway show music with no advertisements
 they bill me -- regular like clockwork- and the compromise i have had to make is classical music  which isn't bad... but it has ocassional ads..
please    some of you who are recoveriing from one thing or another and have computertime... paul// walter // bud2      please.... already this morning i have been at it 1/2 hour   --- i have changed passwords twice  and do not seem to be able to connect.
IT IS AOL RADIO  AND THE OTHER WORD I RUN INTO IS SLACKER

FROM RENEE AND SIR THOMAS  WHO ARE NOW HOME TOGETEHER
Good morning,

Sir Thomas is quite the presence in the house. Not sure how people can ignore an elephant in the room because it's pretty evident when a Great Dane is walking through one!

Good news:
- Sir T LOVES his bed. It seems to be cushy as well as safe (lots of new stuff around - he's curious but at times nervous but relaxes in his bed).
- I have become the Tommy magnet. He follows me everywhere (but appears to like the kitchen best).
- He instigated play time with Elsie (our 13-yr-old Border Collie X). They've enjoyed a few romps through the yard.

Working on it news:
- The vet put him on another antibiotic (7-day) for his toe and recommended soaking it in Epsom salt 2x/day. That will be interesting to try...
- Brave Sir Thomas is quite shy with Andy. I keep telling Tommy that he'll never meet a nicer man but he remains unconvinced.
Looking forward to commuting in today for some time with Megan and the gang!

Renee

SINCE I WASTED SO MUCH TIME WITH THE FOOL RADIO  I WILL CUT ANRD PAST THIS FROM THE EXPLORE Q&A  ABOUT FOOD DISHES
 
 WHOA--- I FORGOT TO MENTION-- WHY THE FOOD HOLDER IN THE FIRST PLACE- WE NEVER PUT A REGFULAR OLD DOG FOOD DISH ONTHE FLOOR-- THEY ARE DANGEROUS-- TRY THIS... PUT A DISH ON THE FLOOR AND JUMP UP AND DPOWN LIKE A HAPPY PUPPY/DOG AND JUST CATCH THE RIM OF THE DISH WITH YOUR TOE-- THE THING FLIPS UP AND WILL WHACKYOU IN THE SHINS WITH GREAT FORCE.. THAT COULD BE THE PUPPY'S FACR SO DON'T DO THAT ALSO I NEVER USE THOSE FLYING SAUCER PUPPY FEEDERS---- I WORRY THAT THOSE DISHES TEACH THE PUPS TO PUSH AND SHOVE FOR FOOD AT AN EARLY AGE.. THE VERY YOUNG PUPPY DISHES I USE TO START HTME ON THE FLOOR AR THE ONES WHICH TAPER OUTWARDS SO THEY CAN NOT BE TIPPED/FLIPPED. THEIR VERY EARLY WATER DISHES ARE THE SAME. WHILE ON THE TOPIC OF DISHES--- THE NORMAL "TIPPABLE" DISHES WE USE FIT PERFECTLYT IN THE 15 # BUCKETS WE GET RECYCLED FROM THE BAKERY DEPT IN COSTCO- THERE IS A LARGER DISH WHICH FITS PERFECTLY IN THE NORMAL 5 GALLON PLASTIC BUCKET... I SAW ONE OF YOUR COMMENTS ABOUT THEIR DOG EATING MUCH TOO FAST--- TO SOME DEGREE, FATST EATING IS NORMAL-- BUT THEY CAN BE SLOWED BY USING A TRAY INSTEAD OF A DISH-- WE ALSO DO THAT WITH A FAT DOG--SO IT TAKES THEM LONGER TO EAT- I AM NOT SURE THAT HAS ANY EFFECT ?AFFECT??? DARN ENGLISH MAJORS.... THAT IS A BINARY DECISION--- AND I 
 
HAVE TROUBLE WITH BINARY DECISION UP/DOWN RIGHT/LEFT THINGS LIKE THAT.. 21 minutes ago
