PURSUIT OF THE PERFECT POOP-- FACT... THESE PUPS ARE CAPABLE OF
CYLINDARS---AND ARE OCASIONALLY REDUCED TO PANCAKES OR... THE DREADED NOISY PP
( PROJECTILE POOPING) MADE EVEN WORSE OCASIONALLY , IF IN THE PROCESS, THEY
TURN AROUND TO TRY AND FIGURE OUT WHAT THAT NOISE IS.
TRACY HAD A VERMICELLI NIGHT .
AND DOLLY HAS YET TO TAKE THE MED--- WHICH IS USUALLY VERY
PALATABLE...
HOW/WHY WORMS--
BEFORE ANYONE GETS ON OUR CASE ABOUT SHOES IN THE PUPPY ROOMS -- KEEP IN
MIND THE MOMMY'S COME DOWN AND LIE ON THE T TENT FLOR, DRIVEWAY, OR
OCASSIONALLY-- YHR MANURE PILE.
STERILIZING THE CAFETERIA IS OUT OF THE QUESTION.
SO THE PUPS ARE GOING TO GET WORMS--- AND PASS THOSE EGGS IN THEIR FECES--
WHICH THE MOMMIES EAT-- SO THEY NEED TO BE WORMED TOO WHEN THE PUPS ARE 3-4
WEEKS OLD
OUR PROBLEM PROBABLY IS THIS IS THE FIRST WORMING--- AND THE PUPS ARE 4-5
WEEKS OLD
BOB AND LYNN... NOTE--- YOU SHOULD WORM THE
MOMS
SO NOW... IF THEY DO NOT PRODUCE CYLINDARS-- ANOTHER REASON SHOULD BE
CONSIDERED...... MY LATEST THEORY IS THAT THE PUPS OUTGROW THEIR ABILITY TO
DIGEST GOATS MILK--- SO IF THEY CONTINUE WITH THE PANCAKE POOPS WE WILL PHASE
OUT THE GOATS MILK-- MOVE ON TO BLENDING - OR FEEDING A PUPPY "ONCE A DAY"
WHICH THE CP's HAVE PROVIDED...WE HAVE LOTS IN THE OVERFLOW ROOM edited should have read one a day/..... vitamin
THEN RE- ASSESS THE POOPS-- SOMEHOW IT IS POSSIBLE TO RAISE TIDY
PUPS...
*****
IN GERMANY -- HEY--- THIS THING IS READ BY SEVERAL GERMAN PEOPLE NOW...
CHECK THIS ONE OUT FOR ME IF YOU WOULD....
WHEN I WS LOOKING FOR A GERMAN BRED MALE I KNOTICED IN SEVERAL KENNELS.
THEY HAD SITTING AROUND A PIE PLATE WITH ROLLED OATS SPRINKED ON IT.. AND THE
DOGS WOULD LAP ONE TONGUFULL AS THEY MOVED ABOUT...
IS THAT THE EQUIVALANT OF EATING GRASS??
ANY RATE I HAVE EXPERIMENTED ON THT OCASSIONALLY BUT USUALL GET LOST IN
HT NUMBER OF VARIABLES...
BUT IT IS A SHOT????
*******
THAT GERMAN TRIP-- YEARS AGO-- I WAS MET BY A FRIEND WHO LIVED IN THE
SAME "DIGS" WHILE AT THE UNIVERSITY OF EDINBURGH---WHILE WE HAD NOT SEEN EACH
OTHER IN ?25 YEARS IT WAS AS IF WE JUST WALKED OUT THE DOOR IN 1957
I WAS ALL ORGANIZED... IN MY USUAL FASHION...
SHE IS UP FOR ANY CHALLANGE- AND WAS NOT SURPRISED TO FIND HERSELF WITH
ME IN THE MIDDLE OF FRNKFURT WITH A LIST OF DANE KENNELS LISTED BY ZIP CODE--
WE HAD A 30 DAY TICKET TO RIDE THE (WONDERFUL) GERMAN TRAINS...
ONE WOULD HAVE THOUGHT WE WOULD HAVE PICKED A KENNEL, THEN LOCATED A TRAIN
GOING THERE... WE DECIDED THE BETTER WAY TO DO IT WAS TO JUST GET ON A TRAIN ,
THEN TRY AND GET THE CONDUCTOR TO TELL US WHAT ZIP CODE WE WERE HEADED
FOR...NEITHER OF US SPOKE GERMAN---- SHE SPEAKS A LITTLE FRENCH.
SO FOR A WEEK WE GOT ON THE PRETTIEST LOOKING TRAIN AND SAW ALOT OF GERMAN
KENNELS.
AND HAD A LOVELY TIME DEALING WITH WHATEVER THE CURRENT SITUATION WS WE
HAD NO TIME TO RE-LIVE EDINBURGH--
LIKE WHEN WE TRRIED TO FIND THE LAST TRAIN OUR OF SOME SMALL TOWN-- AND THE
PERSON SAID SOMETHIGN THAT SOUNDED LIKE "NINE" WE FOUND OUT THAT WORD DID NOT
MEAN NINE O'CLOCK IT MEANT THERE WERE NO MORE TRAINS OUT AT ALL...
****************
THAT STORY TIES IN TO TODAY BECAUSE I BOUGHT A PUP, AND IT WAS MY FIRST
EXPERIENCE WITH PROJECTIONE POOPING IN THE BRUSSELLS AIRPORT CAFETERIA ON
MY WAY HOME.
IT IS WHERE I LEARNED YOU DON'T LEAVE HOME WITHOUT CARDBOARD AND BAGS, AS I
TRID TO DEAL WITH THE SITUATION WITH A MINOR STACK OF BAR NAPKINS AND ONE
NEWSPAPER.
ALL AROUND THE BAR STOOLS
EXPERIENCE COMES FROM BAD EXPERIENCES.. YUP ! .
*************
THE EXCITEMENT OF THE DAY IS -- THE NEW SHELVING SHOUJLD ARRIVE--- NEXT
PROBLEM IS WHERE DO WE STACK ALL THAT STUFF SO WE CAN AT LEAST GET THE SHELVING
UP.
**************
AND ---- MY ARGUEMENT WITH THIS COMPUTER HAS BEEN ADDRESSED BY THE
MULTITUDES AND IT HAS BEEN VERY STRONGLY SUGGESTED I GO APPLE--
I HAVE BEEN IBM SINCE THERE WAS NO SUCH THING AS AN APPLE OR MICROSOFT
--- ALONG THE WAY WHEN ASKED TO MAKE A DECISION IBM OR APPLE, I ALWAYS CHOSE
IBM-- IT BEING BIGGER-- OR SO I THOUGHT.
SO I AM BADLY DATED
AND AS WE ALL KNOW A LACK OF A SHORT TERM MEMORY IS A DETRIMENT TO
LEARNING. BY DEFINITION I WLL RESORT TO LONG TERM.
BUT AS EVERYONE POINTS OUT... IT CAN'T BE WORSE.
SO I AM GOING TO TRY AND GET TO AN APPLE STORE TODAY ..
FIRST PROBLEM -- NOW THEY TELL ME THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS AN APPLE--
ALREADY I HAVE TO LEARN WORDS LIKE MACINTOSH---- WHEN THERE ARE NO CORRESPONDING
WORDS LIKE "CORTLAND" OR "DELICIOUS" OR "GRANNY SMITH"
TODAY I THINK SHEILA WILL BE AROPUND... MAYBE SHE KNOWS THINGS LIKE THIS.
MEGAN AND MARIA ARE SOOOOOO FAR AHEAD I CAN'T EVEN TALK TO THEM.
THIS WILL BE PAINFUL.
BUT WORDS LIKE STRESS AND BLOOD PRESSURE COME IN TO PLAY TOO.
*****************
I DO HAVE A DR APT TOMORROW-- MY BP HAS BEEN RISING STEADILY SINCE THE
APPOINTMENT WHERE THE PA TOLD ME I COULD ONLY DISCUSS ONE AILMENT IN A 15
MINUTE APPOINTMENT-- I WOULD HAVE TO COME BACK.
SO I AM...
****************************
I DO NOT HAVE A NOEL REPORT--- MEGAN LEFT WITH IV DRIPS ETC... SHE IS
GETTING OVERTIRED --
NO SLEEP AND STRESS WILL DO IT TO YOU...
*****
WE ARE LEANING HEAVILY ON OUR VOLUNTEERS-- SO COME ALONG AND GET LEANED
ON....
********************************
I NEED TO RUN OUT AND PUT A SIGN INTHE DRIVEWAY "WELCOME UPS AND FEDEX
DRIVERS"
WE NEED THAT SHELVING... BI G TIME
