THE ONLY THING I GOT OUT OF LAST NIGHT'S NEWS WAS AN AD-- RUN BY A GUY WHO INVENTED A WAY TO ?CLARIFY? WATER..BRAGGING ABOUT HOW HE HAS HELPED 3RD WORLD COUNTRIES WITH THE PROBLEM OF DRINKABLE WATER..
WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH FLINT???? VERY ODD THT HE WOULD NOW RUN THIS AD SHOWING PEOPEL SUPPOSEDILY IN AFRICA RUNNING AROUND WITH JUGS AND TUBS OF CLEAR RUNNING WATER...
THERE IS A MISMATCH THERE SOMEWHERE... HE MUST BE TRYING TO MARKET IT IN FLINT... ASSUMING IT WORKS, WHY WOULD HE NOT?
*****
MUCH MORE CRITICAL IS THAT SATURDAY AND SUNDAY OUR CHICKEN BOARD WAS ACTING A LITTLE STRANGELY-- A PANIC CALL WENT OUT TO THE MEMSAIC GUY-- WHO SAID IT IS ALL BETTER... AND IT SEEMS TO BE... I ENTERED A BUNCH OF QUICK PIKS...MAKING ME THINK (HOW ODD?) THAT IF YOU INCLUDED YOUR EMAIL WE COUDL SEND YOU THE NUMBER- OR IF YOU SENT AN ENVELOPE WE COULD SEND YOU A CARD AS A SUPPORTING MEMBER OF THE "SHATUPON SOCIETY".
I WOULD INCLUDE A POKER CHIP IF YOU PUT THE STAMPS ON... ( IT TAKES 2 STAMPS TO INCLUDE A POKERCHIP.)
I DON'T KNOW WHY IT TOOK ME HIS LONG TO FIGURE THAT OUT.
****
BRILLIANT IDEA---GIVE IT A THOUGHT.....
SOMEONE? HAD A PARTY... IN ARIZONA??? AND ALL 17 OF THE GUESTS GAVE A CHECK TO SDP FOR ABOUT $25--SO I ENTERED EACH WITH A QUICK PIK CHICKEN BRICK NUMBER.
HMMMMMMMM.....
THROWING A PARTY WHERE GUESTS CONTRIBUTE CHECKS -- WE CAN CO OPERATE WITH THAT-- I WOULD BE HAPPY TO "GO TO YOUR PARTY" DISCUSS LIFE IN GENERAL ON CAMERA-- MAIL CALL STYLE...-- IF YOU LET ME KNOW WHAT TIME ETC.... THAT COULD BE A GREAT SPRINGTIME EVENT.. SET UP A COMPUTER AND GET PEOPLE ONLINE--- AND I WOULD BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS-- THAT COULD BE FUN... IT WOULD ALSO BE TOTALLY REAL ----
I HAVE DONE THAT WITH A COUPLE SCHOOLS LAST YEAR... IT IS NOT A PROBLEM AT ALL-- ESPECIALLY IF YOU REMIND ME.
OR BOOK IT WITH THERESA OR LINDAK
*******
LINDAK AND THERESA SHARE THE PAPERWORK JOB HERE NOW. WE ARE GETTING VERY EFFICIENT... I HATE TO ADMIT THAT THERE IS A "MANUFACTURED UNIFORMITY" IN THE LAST LITTER OF DOGS... AVA, CLARK, AND THE LATEST GRONK.... GREAT DOGS.

Three weeks ago, my wife, Cindy, and I brought Ava to our home from the Service Dog Project (SDP) at “Crazy Acres”. How life has changed! Cindy’s mobility and speech are both adversely affected by Spinocerebellar Ataxia. With Ava by her side, Cindy is far more comfortable going out in public without me, and together, Cindy and Ava are walking in the woods alone! Cindy’s physical therapist has noted that Cindy’s gait has already improved.
Ava is so well trained that strangers constantly remark on her behavior. When she is “working” with her vest on, Ava is only focused on Cindy, despite distractions. Ava is able to hear and to respond to Cindy’s vocal commands in crowded, noisy spaces even though Cindy is not able to speak above a whisper.
Although Cindy walks a little taller when people compliment Ava, it is to Carlene, the dedicated trainers, the many volunteers and CP’s that credit is due. The match between Cindy and Ava, who is so responsive to Cindy’s needs, could not be more perfect. Without Crazy Acres many people, not only those with disabilities, but those who work or volunteer with the dogs and those who watch the dogs on camera would never know the richness of life with Danes.
Ava is such a gift. Thank you all. We couldn’t ask for a better companion for Cindy. Cindy’s big smile and new love of life has made me a happy man.
WE LIKE HAPPY MEN-- THEY PARTY..........NOW IF WE CAN PROMOTE THE IDEA OF SDP PARTIES WE WILL GET ALL THESE PUPS SPAYED YET !!! EVEN DOLLAR UP PARTIES... IT ALL COUNTS.
GIVE IT SOME CREATIVE THOUGHT... THEME PARTIES....
I'D VIRTUALLY GO...
