WHERE TO START???
OVERNIGHT?.... THOSE 3 KIDS DID A FANTASTIC JOB INCLUDING PUTTING HAND
WRITTEN SIGNS WITH ANSWERS IN FRONT OF THE LENS AND SEEING THE RESPONSE ON
EXPLORE.ORG.
SOME OF THE QUESTIONS AND COMMENTS ARE SAVED IN A BOX INTHE OVERFLOW ROOM..
THERE IS ANOTHER BOOK IN THE MAKEING...
99.9% WERE PLEASENT, HELPFUL OBSERVATIONS --- BUT I MUST SHARE 2 OF
THE MORE "UNUSUAL" COMMENTS ..
"THE 2 STILLBORNS WERE CAUSED BY YOUR USING CELL PHONES IN THE ROOM."
AND A PERSON CALLED THE IPSWICH POLICE SAYING THAT CHAOS WAS BEING
TORCHERED ANDS WAS DYING-- CAUSING THE ANIMAL CONTROL SUBSTITUTE PERSON TO
CALL.
WELL MOTHERHOOD IN GENERAL IS A SOMEWHAT RISKY AFFAIR... HOWEVER... WE
WERE WELL WITHIN THE WELL DEFINED LIMITS OF SUPERCARE.
I KNEW GETTING INTO THIS ----THAT IT WOULD BGE A VERY LIVELY
CHALLANGE--
AND IT IS.
***************
WE ARE CAUGHT IN THAT "FOR WANT OF A NAIL THE SHOE WAS LOST. THEN THE
HORSE , RIDER, BATTLE AND KINGDOM - ALL FOR WANT OF A NAIL.." KIND OF
DEAL..
******
I SPILLED A TEASPOON OF COFFEE GRINDS ON THE COUNTER AND THOUGHT IF I DON'T
PICK IT UP MYSELF, BECAUSE OF THE THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE NOW INVOLVED... IT COULD
BE MONTHS BEFORE SOMEONE ELSE DOES...
*********
SOMEHOW I NEED TO GET THAT CONCEPT ACROSS TO TH EWORLD. ESPECIALLY WITH
TOMORROW'S STEW ABOUT WHICH SEVERAL PEOPLE ARE TALKING.
*********
CHIP IS COMING UP TODAY--- HE IS A HOLDOVER FROM THE ORIGIONAL PUPPY HILL
CAMERA GANG-- AND HE IS WILLING TO BGE HELPFUL--- SO HE IS WELCOME.
HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE ARE OFFERING TO VOLUNTEER TO COMEHERE AND PAT PUPPIES--
BUT THEY HAVE NO REGARD FOR THE POO PICKING INVOLVED-- WE DO NOT NEED THOSE
SPECTATORS-- UNLESS THEY COME BEARING HUGE CHECKBOOKS.
TECHNICALLY... IF WE DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH POOPICKER TYPESEVEN THE HUGE
CHECKBOOK WOULD NOT SAVE US... SO WE HAVE TO KEEP PERSPECTIVE. HIRED PICKER
OR VOLUNTEER-- WE NEED HELP...
I SAID ( I THINK I SAID ONLINE) PEOPLE COMING HERE FOR STEW SHOULD ARRIVE
WITH WORK GLOVES AND A BROOM OR RAKE-- SO TOMORROW IF YOU SHOULD SEE SUCH A
PERSON ARRIVE... WELCOME THEM WITH OPEN HANDS. ALSO WE SEEM TO BE OUT OF
BROOMS..
( LOVE THAT COMMERCIAL "HAPPY AS A WITCH IN A BROOM FACTORY")
SO BACK TO TRYING TO GET HOLD OF WHERE WE ARE....
LAST NIGHT THE INTERNET WENT DOWN AND THE COMMENTS WERE "SHE MUST HAVE
SHUT IT DOWN OVERNIGHT-" SO I SHUT THE WHOLE THING OFF-
WITHIN 10 MINITES I HAD TIM ( SOMEWHERE BETWEEN THE NORTH POLE AND
VANCOUVER)--- AND JONATHAN-- MAYBE SANFRANCISCO ON THE PHONE THERE WERE
10,000'S OF PEOPLE WATCHING THIS AND IF I AM GOING TO SHUT IT DOWN I SHOULD LET
THEM KNOW SO THEY CAN DEAL... WHOOPS..... I KNEW THERE WERE ALOT OF
PEOPLE-- BUT I HAD TO RE-DEFINE
ALOT...
SO WE-- AT ABOUT MIDNIGHT-- REBOOTED THE OPERATION-- AND GOT IT RUNNING
AGAIN.
SO BACK TO MY SPILLED TEASPOON OF COFFEE- I AM VERY HAPPY TO HAVE PEOPLE
FOLLOW THIS LETTER ALONG WITH THE OTHER BUNCH-- WE CAN DO THAT --- EVEN WITH
MOXIE MOVING IN SOON--
BUT TO KEEP IT ALL UP TO VIDEO STANDARDS WE ARE GOING TO NEED SOME HELP--
AND EXPLORE DID AT ONE POINT SAY THEY WOULD PAY FOR ANY EXPENSES. I NEED TO
HAVE A DISCUSSION WITH SOMEONE ABOUT NEEDING HELP SO WE DON'T STRESS OUR
EXISTING VOLUNTEER SETUP.
THEY SEEM TO BE THRILLED WITH THE "RESULTS" APPARENTLY THE NUMBERS ARE
HUGE - WE HAVE RECIEVED ABOUT $1000 DONATIONS. YESTERDAY BETWEEN PAYPAL AND
CHICKEN SH#T.
FOR $1000 PER DAY - WE CAN DEAL WITH ABOUT ANYTHING- AND IN THE PROCESS
PRODUCE 3 OR 4 TIMES THE NUMBER OF SERVICE DOGS.
ONCE WE SEE WHAT THE ON GOING FINANCIAL COMMITTMENT WILL BE-- WE CAN
MAKE BETTER PLANS.
AT THE MOMENT WE ARE AT THE BRING A BROOM STATE...
STAY TUNED..
***********MEANWHILE
MEGAN WENT WITH TEAL AND 57 TO SCHOOL-- SAISD THE PEOPLE IN SCHOOL ARE
RELALY HAPPY WITH TEAL AND 57-- THERE WAS ONE GLITCH I DID NOT UNDERSTAND---
APPARENTLY 57'S AID FORGOT TO TAKE HER TO LUNCH AGAIN-- WHICH SHE DID WHEN 57
WAS IN A WHEELCHAIR.. BETTER TEACH TEAL TO BARK ON COMMAND SO THAT AID
WOULDN'T LET 57 STARVE...
*************
MAJOR DISASTER-- WITH HER BROKEN HIP--- IS IN REHAB IN SALEM NH. ..-- AND
THEY KNOW ME-- SO GREG AND GWEN OFFERED TO TAKE PUMPKIN UP FOR A VISIT....
************
GEORGE DECLARED CHOAS EMPTY OF PUPS-- AND SHE PASSED 3 AFTERBIRTHS ( WE
THINK)-- SHE LOOKS COMFORTABLE.
**********
ALL THE REST OF THE DOGS NEED SOME PERSONAL TIME-- SO REGULAR VOLUNTEERS
COME ALONG AND HELP
************
