I AM ABOUT TO DO IT AGAIN- I THINK I OWN EVERY PIECE OF EQUIPMENT THAT
SAID IT COULD ORGANIZE MY OFFICE- I SHOULD HAVE THEM UP ON FALSE
ADVERTISING.
SO... OFF WE GO AGAIN... JANINE HAS A BUNCH OF PAGES WRITTEN FOR THIS
BOOK-- 2 PEOPLE HAVE READ HER PART AND SAID IT IS INTERESTING/FUNNY NOW I AM
EXPECTED TO COME UP WITH THE "STORY" OF SERV DOG PROJECT.
I TRIED PAPER AND PEN-- TO NO AVAIL-- SO NEXT IT IS A VOICE TO PRINT RECORDER.. LEARNING TO USE IT MAY BE A WHOLE NEW PHASE OF MY LIFE.,
STARTING WITH ALSO BUYING
THE BOOK " VOICE RECORDING FOR DUMMIES."
KEEPING IN MIND I EVEN ARGUE WITH THE "AUTOMATIC " TOASTER--
WORSE THAN THAT .... I NEED " BOOK WRITING FOR DUMMIES".
******
JANINE'S DESCRIPTION OF BEING THE "GOFER" FOR ANIMALEPISODES IS FUNNY...
NOW... LIKE THE JOB I BOOKED FOR HER TO GALLOP A RACE HORSE ACROSS A FIELD...
SOUNDED SIMPLE.. TIL WE GOT THERE AND FOUND SHE WAS TO WEAR A CHICKE N SUIT---
WHICH WASN'T BAD TIL I BOOSTED HER UP ON THIS RACE HORSE AND THE CHICKEN SUIT
WENT UP AS SHE STRADDLED THE HORSE MEANING THE HEAD WENT UP AND SHE COULD NOT
SEE THRU THE NECK-- WHICH TOOK HORSE GALLOPING TO A WHOLE NEW LEVEL AS SHE
TRIED TO MANAGE THE REINS WITH THE FEATHER COVERED HANDS..
NORMAL JOB.
PAID THE COLLEGE TUITION..
************
AT ANY RATE MY BOOK WRITING IS WAY BEHIND HER'S
PLUS SHE HAD MORE MATERIAL
***
UNTIL WE GET TO THE CAMERA EPISODES.. OF WHICH PEOPLE ARE KINDLY REMINDING
ME...
YOU DON'T REALIZE HOW FAR YOU CP's HAVE COME....
REMEMBER ALL THE PHONECALLS I HAD WARNING ME ABOUT
"THERE IS A BIRD IN THE KENNEL"
OLD HAT TO THE CP'S NOW.. BUT 6 MONTHS AGO IT WAS CAUSE FOR ALARM..
AND I WAS REMINDED OF " THE REASON SHE HAD A STILLBORN PUP IS YOU WERE
USING CELL PHONES IN THE ROOM" TO WHICH AN EXPLORE TECH REPLIED " THE REASON
FOR THE STILBORN WAS THAT YOU DID NOT WASH YOUR PHONE FIRST."
THERE ARE DELIGHTFULLY BIZZARRE STORIES FRROM SDP ALSO
THE EQUALLY BIZZARRE CONCEPT IS THAT THE PURCHASE OF A VOICE TO PRINT
RECORDER WILL SAVE ME.
***********
I ALWAYS SAID THE ONLY THING I LEARNED A COLLEGE WAS WHAT A DEADLINE WAS--
TUESDAY AT 4PM DID NOT MEAN 4:02PM.
ACTUALLY A VERY VALUABLE LESSON- IT SEEMS NOW THAT THERE MUST HAVE BEEN A
MORE EFFICIENT WAY TO EDUCATE ME ABOUT DEADLINES.
THE LACK OF THIS KNOWLEDGE IN THE GENERAL POPULATION IS ALARMING.. I DID
NOT GO TO THE WANT AD ( MAGAZINE) OFFICE VERY OFTEN EVEN THO I WAS RESPONSIBLE
FOR ALL THEIR COMPUTER ACCOUNTING.
IT WAS SHOCKING---- PEOPLE WERE SUPPOSED TO START AT 9:00 AND THEY WOULD
WANDER IN AT 9:17 WITH A TAKE OUT BREAKFAST IN THEIR HAND... EXPLAINING THAT
THERE WAS A LONGER THAN USUAL LINE AT THE TAKE OUT.
EATING BEFORE 9:00 WAS FOREIGN TO THEM-- AS WAS ALLOWING FOR A FEW MINUTES
TRAFFIC PROBLEM- WHICH HAPPENED EVERY DAY.
******
IT WASN'T COLLEGE THAT TAUGHT ME IF YOU LIKE THE JOB YOU WILL BE A FEW
MINUTES EARLY. I LEARNED THAT FROM THE DIRECTOR OF THE YWCA WHO FIRED ME FOR
BEING 5 MINUTES LATE TOO OFTEN. I CAN HEAR HER STILL "YOU ARE NEVER 5 MINUTES
EARLY-- YOU ARE FIRED."
PROBABLY AS VALUABLE AS MY 4 YEAR DEGREE IN DEADLINES
************
ONE MINUTE LATE FOR AN AIRPLANE DOESN'T WORK EITHER.
*************
BACK TO DOGS
EBONY AND AL ARE DOING GREAT-- THEY WILL PROBABLY BE LEAVING HERE BOUT
1:00 TODAY-- SO IF YOU WANT TO MEET THEM GET EHRE BY THEN.
IT IS A LITTLE DIFFERENT THAN THE USUAL SERVICE DOG-- EBONY IS YOUNGER THAN
WE USUALLY PUT OUT... BUT THEY HAVE HAD MANY ANIMALS BEFORE AND ALL EBONY NEEDS
IS 20 MILES OF "DOIN' THE ONE STEP" WHICH AL CAN DO WITH EBONY AND HIS WIFE..
AND IN TH E MEANTIME EBONY WILL HAVE HIS COMPANY INSTEAD OF KENNEL LIVING.
A BIT OF AN EXPERIMENT-- SHE IS YOUNG AND "IN TRAINING" THEY CAN SOME
BACK IN A FEW MONTHS WHEN SHE IS READY TO BE DEEMED A SERV DOG.
IN THE MEANTIME A SERV DOG IN TRAINING HAS THE SAME PUBLIC ACCESS RIGHTS
AND RESPONSIBILITIES..
SO HAVE AT IT.
*****'
I STILL HAVE TO GIVE THEM 2 LECTURES
YOU GIVE THEM A HAPPY LIFE AND WHEN IT IS OVER YOU LET THEM GO TO SLEEP
.
WHEN YOU DRIVE- YOU SHOULD PUT A GLASS OF WATER ON THE DASHBOARD- AND IF
YOU SPILL IT TOO OFTEN, EVENTULLY YOUR DOG WILL NOT GET IN THE CAR AT ALL.-----
PANIC STOPS-- JACK RABBIT STARTS ARE NOT A HAPPY EXPERIENCE FOR CANINE
PASSENGERS.

TODAY-- STEWING--
SHOULD BE NICE...
