I MUST TRY VERY HARD TO PUT THIS PHOTO IN THE DD....

DARN----  IT IS TONY DOVOLANI FROM DANCING WITH TEH STARS DANCING WITH EVA AND POSING WITH FINN... PRICELESS PHOTO...  I HAVE ATTACHED IT.... BUT DON'T SEEM TO BE ABLE TO INCLUDE IT.    GRRRRRRRRRRR.

------- 

I GET SO MANY EMAILS AND PHONE CALLS REQUIRING THIS GENERIC RESPONSE THT I WILL COPY PASTE IT HERE.

THIS PERSON SOUNDED LIKE SHE WAS NEW TO THE SEARCH FOR SOMETHING TO HELP  HER HUSBAND  WHO SHE SAID  COULD NOT WORK BECAUSE OF HEALTH ISSUES....

PROBLEM WITH ALOT OF HEALTH ISSUES IS THEY ELIMINATE A PERSPON FROM  A GREAT DEAL; OF LIFE FOR A BUNCH OF REASONS...

couple things

of course come to our open house on sunday  we are open from 12 to 4--

verbiage.....

 therapy dogs are well behaved dogs that are welcome  places  by invitation..

service dogs should be perfectly behaved and can go anywhere you can take a cane.... by law... even our 168 pound danes

aside from that.....  anyone who gets one of our dogs must be able to care for it 100%  ...

 even tiny little bella at 48 pounds has total care of george 150 pounds... has to be so the dog bonds to the recipient...

that being said.....if you need a place to go and volunteer in a  fresh air/ unusual  environment- 

we  already have 2 other men who come here for various reasons and the generic chore is to walk around and give out  our /purina cookies to each of teh 50 or so danes on the property.  it is good for teh dogs to see more men around-- most of our volunteers are women. 

 because he might faint/fall, you would have to  be responsible for him ...i.e.  come with him and at least keep him in your eyesite.  if he can't walk around... there is  a;ways  laundry to fold... or........

right now i would love to have someone sit and drink coffee ... or chowder....watch to see if "elvis"  has found the wqter supply in the donkey tent .  elvis being a bovine from the slaughter pens in penna   -- turns out he  was someone's pet ox that she rescued and now we have. a nice animal--- all  that is on camera off our web..

THERE IS ALWAYS SOME WAY TO HELP AROUND HERE.

 

 WE LEARNED ALOT FROM ANNIE--THAT WAS  SHE WAS SO KIND AND HELPFUL AND ALL SHE REQUIRED WAS THAT WE PICK HER UP AND PUT HER BACK ON HER FEET ONCE IN A WHILE.

WELL WE CAN DO THAT BETTER THAN  THE MUSEAM OF FINE ART...

WE SHOUD HAVE SOME "PROCEEDIURE ARPUND HERE LIKE MY LICENSE. 

 IF I HIT 3 THINGS IN ONE DAY I AM SUPPOSED TO GIVE UP  DRIVING.

 LIKEWISE IF SOMEONE FALLS 3 TIMES IN ONE DAY WE GET TO CALL 911 -

 OTHERWISE GET UP AND GET ON WITH IT.

costco survey  " do you visit costco more than ones a week? "

feb 28 2020

best ad i can think of.. is the one with 15 seconds of silence ----i thank them for that ---- now that you can not even pump gas without having to listen to ads... i wonder if someone has studied.. if when you place a call to your bank,  . "your wait time will be aproximately 4 minutes" will produce .021%increase in sales for the paper towels that runs teh ad you are forced to listen to.  maybe the bank now rents commercial time like the tv's do...  FOR $10,000  A MONTH, WE WILL RUN YOUR 30 SECOND AD DURING AS THE FIRST AD AFTER THE " YOU ARE IMPORTANT TO US." SPEACH.   AT LEAST TOILET PAPER IS AD FREE... SO FAR.

MY SECOND FAVORITE  AD IS THE TURKEY WHO QUITS SMOKING.-- THAT TURKEY- HOWEVER THEY DO IT, IS WELL DONE--- TO THE BLINKING OF EYES.

I REMEMBER..........I HAD TO DO A  FILMING OF A TURKEY AD ONCE.  IT WAS A JAPANESE CREW -- TO ADd TO THE NORMQAL PROBLEMS, THERE WAS ONLY  ONE TRANSLATER. SOMEHOW... THERE WAS A  WILD TURKEY IN NEWTON WHO FOLLOWED THE POSTMAN  THRU AN ASSISTED LIVING PLACE.  THEY WANTED TO FILM IT....  I KNEW THERE WAS LITTLE CHANCE OF HAVING THAT WILD TURK SHOW UP ON SCHEDULE-- AND I JUST HAPPENED TO KNOW SOMEONE WITH A COUPLE PET.. BROWN TURKEYS WHO  WOULD WORK FOR CRACKED CORN (FYI CORN ALSO COMES   FLAKED INTO 1/2 INCH PANCAKE THINGS.)-- SO WITH A SMALL POUCH OF THE CRACKED CORN MY TURKEY ACTOR HAPPILY FOLLOWED THE POSTMAN.AS THE DIRECTOR SHOUTED INSTRUCTIONS IN JAPANESE AND THE SMALL CROWD OF "ELDERS" ASKED LOUDLY "WHAT'D HE SAY?" 

THERE ARE 2 OTHER FYI'S FROM THAT JOB-- I WAS TOLD LONG AGO INTO THIS ANIMAL EPISODE BUSINESS THAT TURKEYS CAN BE DANGEROUS  BECAUSE THEY WILL PECK AT ANY SHINEY OBJECT  AT THEIR  EYE LEVEL... CAR HUBCAPS ARE A FAVORITE--- UNFORTUNATELY SMALL CHILDREN'S SHINEY EYES HAVE THE SAME FASCINATION.

THE OTHER MEMORY FROM THAT JOB... WAS THERE WAS A DOG BARKING IN THE ASSISTED LIVING PLACE THE WHOLE TIME-- A WANDA TYPE...  AT SOMETIME WHILE WE WERE STANDING AROUND , I  SAID " I WONDER WHO OWNS THAT DOG?"

A WOMAN SAID " I DO, ... I CAN  NOT UNDERSTAND WHY HE BARKS ALL THE TIME- I LOCK HIM IN THE BATHROOM AND THAT DOESN'T HELP"--- I SUGGESTED SHE GO GET HIM ON A LEASH AND BRING HIM OUT.. AND I BET HER HE WOULD STOP BARKING... AND SHE DID  AND HE DID. I TOLD HER THE DOG WAS JUST TRYING TO TELL HER SHE FORGOT TO TAKE HIM WITH HER.-- AND SHE " I NEVER THOUGHT  OF IT HIS WAY" 

NOW EVERY TIME I SEE SOMEONE STICK THEIR FINGER IN THE AIR AND YELL   "SIT"  AND  AT ONE OF MY DOGS, I KNOW THE DOG IS SAYING " REALLY?  WHY SIT? " AND THE  PERSON IS THINKING "I CAN DOMINATE THIS DOG" 

 A CLEAR EXAMPLE OF    XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX  ALOT OF THINGS.

=======

I HAVE HAD LOTS OF  COMMENTS ON ESTABLISHING OUR UNIVERSITY... OR AT LEAST COLLEGE...

 College of Crazy Acres   Dog Bless Univ. 

 THAT DOG BLESS YOU  HAS POSIBILITIES.... HOW CAN WE TWEEK THAT?

I’m sure if you ask for suggestions there will be many more.  You could also list the courses taught there - name recognition, the leash laws, the science of the wait, etc. 

This was fun.  Thanks.

======

What a fun Start to the Morning! I read the Daily Doggie. If we all keep and open mind and generous heart we can all learn and grow from each other. I truly admire what you are doing and the strides above others that you have made. I agree you do have the "BEST" Great Dane Service Dogs!

I guess that the degree I have already attained, and I might add with pride, is Daniel Broin, PPS ( Professional Pooper Scooper!)

Smiles    Off to the gym now!

=====

 you see... i would prefer  perfect ps/// becasue a lot of times the professional does not indicate proficiency....

oh... how i made this mistake i do not know  a dog's name with a cd is a companion dog  teh champion has the ch before the name..  whoops....

 

feb 27 2020

i am off and running down the yellow brick road.... which is about wherre we are...at...lets face it.. we are the  world's experts on service danes...

 i need to protect us from  ideas forced on us by  people with funny letters after their names

this started because i had a job  applicant from a " dog university" in california- i have never understood why they get to  confer degrees on anyone-- or more specifically why  we can not?  who says we can't?? ???we are just... as teh wizzard says  “You’re a victim of disorganized thinking.”.. dammit

 we can put letters after our names too.... 
 so with that legal technicality  out of the way,   we as teh COLLEGE OF HARD KNOCKS ( who's colors are black and blue) could offer our first degree in  thinkology-- just like the wizzard of oz.... which would obviously have to go to bud...  so  it would be bud brown,SF,TH,.

 Megan as the super trainer would become Megan Kokaras,SF, ST, and  linda might become the SF, CD  ( calm dispenser)i would become ,SF, CH ( chef hirerer)  we will have to give this some thought.. mostly because we are the experts...    .  THERE MAY BE JUST a bit of "the valedictorian in a class of one" in this....  but bella and george have legitimized our existence. george is not the  only one... there are nearly 200-- there are no better danes than ours... or even  no better dogs than ours...

it truely takes a village... including the  truck driver who should get a TPU after his name... because without him... we are in deep doodoo.

anyone who has sent us the $10 for a chicken brick is entitled to have  SF... ( Shatupon Follower) after their names.  we need to work on the rest.

 we have some significant work to do

  Not to leave out  bentley  CGC,TD,SD  the tests he and sizzle --- have passed... cainine good citizen, therapy dog and service dog.  remember... there is a woman at the feed store who considers me a criminal for breeding a dog that does not have a CD.  .. AKC  Champion Dog,,

There is almost a gocd reason for the AKC logic---sorting out the more perfect specimins of the breed.... i know of people who have spent $60,000 "getting a cd "  on their dog-- because there are some very unusual rules  like different judges an dhow many dogs they  beat...  to help this along there is something about holding2 different dog shows on the same weekend so you get to gather points from 2 different judges without all the gas money.   i did it one better thn tht , and bought 100 blue ribbons for 15 cents each-  i had run too many horse shows to resist that simplification to the ribbon problem. i did win one dog show once- and just could not go thru that again.

german  reg..  has , i think, a more useful way...  on thier pedigree there is a number around 300 which is supposed to say how near perfect the dog is for the breed type regardless of who won what... ( i think)    SUPRA   who is sir richard's mother is 306.. i have never seen anything higher.. so i don't know what "top " is.

their pedIgrees also conatin hips A-B-C,D  they don't breed  "D" i am told.... plus ratings for elbows, hearts, entropian are usually on the pedigrees... in europe...

so let's join the lettered population...

  someone needs to design a diploma for us????

FEB 26 2020

SOMEONE FROM ARIZONA WANTS TO COME SEE "HOW WE RUN THIS BUSINESS."

.. SO I ANSWERED.....

LETS TRY "HOW THE BUSINESS RUNS ME !!"

 YOU ARE CERTAINLY WELCOME TO COME AND STAY HERE   3 DAYS AT A TIME..

( VISITORS AND FISH GO BAD AFTER 3 DAYS) 

BY ALL MEANS COME AHEAD-- IT IS REALLY A SEAT OF TEH PANTS OPERATION 

 BUT LIKE THE NEEDLEPOINT SAYS.....

HAPPY TO SHARE WITH YOU.

SUCH AS WE'VE GOT

THE LEAKS IN THE ROOF

THE SOUP IN THE POT.

NOW THAT IS A GOOD START FOR MY DAILY DOGGIE

---

THAT HANGS IN THE GUEST HOUSE - DONE BY ... AUNT MILDRED....

EVERYBODY PROBABLY HAS AN AUNT MILDRED !!  IF  YOU DON'T, I AM SORRY.

---

I AM SURE ALL OF YOU KNOW-- BY NOW-- HOW I CAN REALLY SCREW UP PAPERWORK-- ESPECIALLY PAPERWORK DESIGNED BY OTHERS. AND MORE ESPECIALLY IF IT MAKES SENSE TO OTHER--IT  USUALLY LOOKS LIKE DATA FOR DATA'S SAKE TO ME. 

WHAT IS WELL HIDDEN-- IS THAT GIVEN A BUNCH OF IMPOSSIBLE GIBBERISH,  I HAVE BEEN KNOWN TO  CREATE COMPUTER SYSTEMS TO GET OUT OF IT   WHATEVER I  PERSONALLY  NEED.... WHICH MIGHT NOT AGREE WITH WHATEVER THE REST OF THE WORLD  THINKS THEY  WANT..... 

CLASSIC  CASE YOU HAVE HEARD BEFORE ABOUT ME IN MY BLUE JEANS WITH ONE FOLDED  PIECE OF PAPER VERSUS A BLUE SUITED /POLISHED SHOES CPA WITH 1/2 INCH OF IBM PRINTOUT- I MADE MY  PAPER HAVE  WHAT I NEEDED TO KNOW  IN A FORM NO ONE ELSE IN THE WORLD COULD UNDERSTAND-- BUT SINCE THEY WERE NOT READING IT...IT WAS NO PROBLEM AND IT WAS RIGHT..

TEH 1/2 INCH COMPUTER P/O  HAD A FATAL FLAW.. 

CAUSING TEH PRESIDENT OF TH COMPANY TO GIVE ME A ---- NOT QUITE COMPLIMENT----  "I DIDN'T KNOW YOU HAD A COLLEGE DEGREE... "  

 IT ALSO CAUSED THE PRES OF THAT COMPANY TO GIVE ME  A LOT OF MONEY TO BUILD TEH KENNEL AND ARENA YOU NOW SEE....

FAST FORWARD TO ADI AND  THE RECORDS I KEEP- BASICALLY FOR MY OWN USE IN TRYING TO MANAGE SDP IN TEH BEST AND MOST EFFECIENT WAY---  WHICH OFTEN  MAKES NO SENSE TO "REGULAR " PEOPLE

 FOR EXAMPLE  FOR THE MAGAZINE    A REPORT THAT SAYS  4  4  4  4  4     IS ENTIRELY DIFFERENT THAN ONE THAT SAYS 4  4  3  4  4  .

THAT 3 TELLS ME A CHARGE SLIP IS MISSING--  ONE PER WEEK... 4 WEEKS A MONTH MEANS 3 IS WRONG SOMETHING THAT SAVES ME HOURS OF DETAILED WORK..

I AM SUPER AT LAZY ( COMFORTABLE AND WARM) WAYS OF DOING  SOME THINGS...  WITH SDP... THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEEN  S  S  S  S   AND MB  MB  MB  MB  WOULD EXPLAIN  TO ME.....THE RISE IN GAS EXPENSE ---IF TRAINERS GO TO SHAWS WHEN MARKET BASKET IS 5 MILES CLOSER.-- THEY ARE BOTH SUPERMARKETS.

I HEAR ADI FACILITIES ARE  PAYING THOUSANDS  OF $$$ FOR SYSTEMS THAT DON'T DO WHAT MINE DO .. THAT IS BECAUSE 

 1.  THEY DON'T KNOW/  HAVE NOT ASKED  AND

 2.  I HAVE NOT SAT STILL LONG ENOUGH TO EXPLAIN  WHAT  TEH BUNCH OF S S S S   MEANS...

2 PROBLEMS I NEED TO DEAL WITH......

I NEED TO TELL SOMEONE IN ADI--WHAT I HAVE ALREADY DONE AND WILL SHARE FOR ZERO....

AND SECONDLY... I NEED TO "CLEAN  UP" THE  REPORTS  FOR NORMAL CONSUMPTION.. . 

I THINK IT IS/WAS  CALLED MASSAGING DATA..

FEB 25 2020

BETSY'S ENTHUSIASM FOR COMPOSTING WAS OVERWHELMING AT MAIL CALL WHEN SHE DELIVERED MY SPECIAL CONTAINER  WHICH IS GOING TO HAVE TO GO N THE PORCH -- I HOPE THE RACOONS DON'T UPSET THE DOGS AS TEHY UPSET THE FOOD CONTAINERS AT 2AM...?????

THIS BRINGS UP ANOTEHER TOPIC-- THE SEPTIC TANK ---WHEN WE DUG THE TEST HOLE BEFORE WE STARTED BUILDING. IN 1979  .. THE HEALTH PERSON CAME TO INSPED=CT IT -- AND WAS ALL EXCITED AND SAID THE SOIL WAS SO FANTASTIC THAT I COULD RUN A SMALL MOTEL HERE...WHICH IS NOW JUST ABOUT WHAT WE HAVE GOING ON.... HOWEVER;;;  THERE IS A TANK -- THEN A DISTRIBUTION BOX AND LEACH FIELD- IN SPITE OF MY RELATIVE TELLING ME HOW STUPID IT WAS NOT TO HAVE THE TANK PUMPED ONCE A YEAR, IT WAS NEVER HIGH ON MY LIST- SO WHENEVER I THIUGHT ABOUT IT- WHICH WAS NOT OFTEN I WOULD GO B  UY A BIG BOX OF " RIDX" FLUSH IT AND FORGET IT. FOR ANOTHER PERIOD OF TIME... ALONG ABOUT THE START OF TEH CAMERAS   2012   AND PEOPLE STARTING TO COME HERE OFTEN I GOT INSPIRED TO HAVE IT PUMPED

THE MAN WHO PUMPED IT ( IN HIS SPOTLESSLY CLEAN STAINLESS STEEL TRUCK,) SAID AFTERWARDS  " YOURS IS IN FANTASTIC SHAPE  WHEN DID YOU HAVE IT PUMPED LAST.?"  HE COULD NOT BELIEVE I SAID  "WE PUT IT IN IN 1979 AND YOU ARE THE FIRST ONE TO PUMP IT" IF MY MATH IS CORRECT--- THAT IS 33 YEARS...  ?? OF RIDX?  

( THIS IS CONNECTING TO COMPOSTING.... REALLY....)  THIS GUY WITH HIS STAINLESS TRUCK IS AS MUCH AN EXPERT  ON SEPTIC  AS ANYONE WENT ON TO ASK HOW MANY PEOPLE LIVED HERE... ETC.... ( BETWEEN 1 AND 13 DEPENDING ON T4H GUESTS OF  CAMERA PEOPLE  ) AND ONE THING HE ASKED ABOUT WAS TEH GARBAGE DISPOSAL-- YES WE USED ONE BUT ALOT OF OUR "FOOD WASTE"  WENT TO OUR CHICKENS.  HE DECIDED I HAD TEH PERFECT  FORMULA  OF PEOPLE, CHICKENS  AND RIDX-

TO HAVE A SEPTIC SYSTEM NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY  IS NOT JUST A PHYSICAL MESS- BUT INVARIABLY MEANS THE BUILDING AND  HEQLTH INSPECTORS WILL MOVE IN WITH YOU -- IT CAN GET SOOOOO BAD THAT YOU MIGHT HAVE TO MOVE-- OR   DIG OUT AND TRUCK IN BETTER DIRT

-- 

TEH RISING OF TEH WATERS... LIKE OUR BEAVERS WHO ARE CREATING A BIG LAKE IN TEH "A" FIELD...-- OUR HOUSE ETC IS WAY ABOVE THE PROBLE3M.. BUT THE NEIGHBORS HAVE HAD A FLOOD... ONCE... AND I AM TOLD  BY A COMPANY CALLED /"BEAVER DECIEVERS"  THAT YOU CAN KILL OFF THE BEAVERS ONCE BUT IF THEY COME BACK, THEN THEY RULE. I DON'T MEAN TO WISH THEM ILL... THEY ARE ONE SET OF NEIGHBORS THAT NEVER COMPLAIN... HOWEVER-- THAT HOUSE WOULD MAKE A PERFECT  PUPPY RAISING KENNEL;  WE COULD REDO THE SEPTIC BIT ON WHAT IS NOW MY LAND. 

--

OR... JANINE ONCE OWNED A HOUSE WHERE THE SEPTIC AND LEACH WAS UPHILL FROM THE HOUSE.. AND PUMPED.... PERSONALLY , I COULD NEVER LIVE IN A HOUSE LIKE THAT-- TALK ABOUT  "HEAVY HEAVY HANGS OVER THY HEAD"   . JUST WAITING FOR TEH ELECTRICITY TO FAIL.... NOT ME... I BELIEVE IN GRAVITY !!

---

AND THEN THERE IS DIRT,  AND THE TRUCKLOADS THEREOF...

I ONLY KNOW A FEW FACTS....

1. THE GUY WHO BULLDOZED THIS PROPERTY WHEN WE BUILT..1979 .. SAID HE WOULD TOTALLY BUILD OUR HOUSE IF WE ALLOWD HIM TO MAKE THE PROPERTY A FLAT FIELD COVERED IN TOPSOIL AND GRASS. HE WAS IN TEH BUSINESS OF REPLACONG FAILED SEPTIC SYSTEMS AND NEEDED THE DIRT/ SOIL.

2. A FRIEND   NAMELSESS -- HAD A BROTHER WHO OWNED A HILL- AND DECIDED TO MAKE A  FLAT RIDING RING OUT OF IT... WHIC MEANT "GET RID OF ALL THAT HILL... BY THE TRUCKLOAD.... SOMEHOW THE HILL IS GONE AND THERE IS NO RIDING RING.

3. THE TOWN OF  SAUGUS MASS.  IS/ WAS  SOLID ROCK HILLS ...  WHICH ALMOST BY TH DAY  IS BECOMING A FLAT  WITH A FEW ODD  ROCK CLIFFS WITH THE MARKS PIPE S MAKE WHEN YOU DYNOMITE

4. TEH CITY GUY OFFERING TEH FARMER  $10,000 FOR HIS COW PASTURE., AND THE FARMER SAYING " YOU COME ROUND WITH A WHEELBARROW AND I WILL GET YOU $10,000 WORTH."   

FEB 24 2020

DATA MUST NOT BE ALLOWED TO EXHIST PURELY FOR DATA'S SAKE..I KNOW FULL WELL THAT THESE THINGS I GET TELLING ME H OW IMPORTANT MY OPINION IS AND I MUST REPLY IMMEDIATELY    DON'T GIVE A RIP AND JUST WANT A DONATION..... IF THOSE PAPERS WERE TO BE AUTOMATICALLY COUNTED, WOULDN'T THEY REQUIRE A #2 PENCIL?   WHATEVER  ??

THERE ARE THOSE QUESTION MY RELIANCE ON POO PICKERS FOR DATA COLLECTION.... ONE OF THE FIRST REQUIREMENTS IS TEH AVAILABILITY OF TEH DATA FOR COLLECTION... AND IF YOU HAVE TO FIND A #2 PENCIL OR A LOOSE LEAF NOTEBOOK FULL OF FORMS YOU WILL REDUCE THE AVAILABIOLTY OF DATA...

I TELL OUR  PEOPLE THEY MUST CARRY OUR POO PICKERS IN THERI BACK POCKETS    AND I DO NOT HAVE TO REMIND THEM  BECAUSE GOLDIE WILL. ABOUT THE SECOND TIME THEY DO NOT HAVE ONE, THE DOG THEY HAVE IN THE MALL WILL DECIDE TO HAVE THAT PAUSE THAT REFRESHES- AND INSTEAD OF TAKING CARE OF THAT  IMMEDIATELY THEY ARE LEFT STANDING WITH A

 GOLDIE GOTTCHA.

SO THEY CARRY POO PICKERS.

WHEN THEY PUNCH OUT-- THERE IS A PENCIL PEN NEXT TO THE CLOC.K SO THAT IS ABOUT AS CLOSE AS I CAN GE T TO PROVIDIG E  A FORM  TO SUBMIT THIER   " DATA FOR DONNA"

FOR OPENERS.…

MY  system starts with  THOSE  3 x 6 inch cardboard  

At the end of the day they write on one of the cardboard   THE DATE    name of every dog they handled, where they went, and 2 words of their  biggest problem  that day. And shove it in the coffee cup on the MY desk when theY LEAVE.

SORTING IS WHAT A COMPUTER DOES BEST. 

AS THE DATA IS SORTED  DIFFERNET WAYS,  ALL DOGS ONE WEEK…. OR ONE DOG FOR THE  YEAR ….   A REPORT ON MY DESK ALLOWS FOR SEEING  TRENDS BOTH WEEKLY AND THEN YEARLY..  WITH A QUICK GLANCE -- FROM MY WARM CHAIR… I CAN SEE....\

WHAT DOG GOT TRAINED WHAT DAY… AND WHICH ONES DID NOT…..

WHERE THEY WENT

WHAT PROBLEMS TEHRE WERE…  STAIRS---  OR GOOD  STAIRS+++,

WHAT PLANS NEED  DISCUSSION /CHANGING…

HOW MUCH TIME IS SPENT DRIVING— APROX   GAS  MILEAGE…

IS THERE A SIMILAR COMMENT  WITH THE ENTIRE LITTER

IS  ONE TRAINER HAVING A PROBEM WITH ONE DOG.

I KNOW WHAT  HAPPENS WHERE  - TO GO TO MB – MARKETBASKET  MEANS THEY DID  MEAT COUN TER  AND SHOPPING CART THINGS PROBABLY NOT STAIRS..—TOYOTA MEANS DOWN STAY FOR  2 HOURS WITH PEOPLE AND DOGS.

IT DOES REQUIRE A VERY BASIC UNDERSTANDING OF SPREADSHEETS  AND SORTING    WHICH EVERY PERSON IN TH E WORLD SEEMS TO KNOW NOW. AND ALL DATA MUST ALLOW FOR HUMAN ERROR-- AS IN KEY PUNCH....  BUT AS FOR A SOURSE TO DETERMINE TRENDS... IT IS PRETTY GOOD.

REASON I AM DOING THIS IS......     I THINK DATA COLLECTION BY  AN ORGANIZATION THAT SHALL REMAIN NAMELESS NEEDS  TO BRING THEMSELVES INTO THE NEW WORLD--

CORPORATIONS MAY NOT EXHIST BY DATA ALONE

DATA HAS TO BE A TOOL  TO BE USED BY A N AGILE HUMAN MIND.

--------

WHICH MAKES ME REMEMBER   

DONKEYS ALLOW PEOPLE TO BE IDIOTIC.

-----

 DONKS GOATS AND ELVIS ARE ALL IN ONE PASTURE NOW...  AND I AM COUNTING ONT THE DONKEYS TO KEEP IT ALL STRAIGHT... 

THE GOATS ARE SLEEPING IN THE DON'S HAY BIN... AND ELVIS STILL HAS NOT FOUND THE GENERIC WATER TUB

HE IS NOT CHASING THEM... THEY ARE ALL RUNNING IN THE SAME DIRECTION-- HE MAY BE TEH CAUSE OF TEH DIRECTIONAL RUN...... BUT THERE IS NOT THE DEGREE OF PANIC THAT THERE MIGHT BE....  SOMETIMES THEY ALL JUST STAND AROUND AN D LOOK AT EACH OTHER..   

SO MUCH FOR TODAYS POLITICAL STATEMENT.

FEB 23 2020

JETRO-  cash and carry... IS TEH FYI OF THE DAY......AKA     WWW,RESTAURANTDEPOT.COM OR JETRO.COM ----- ONE STEP CHEAPER THAN COSTCO,,, IF YOU CAN DEAL WITH THE QUANTITY.   THNGS LIKE CARROTS 50 POUND BAGS..  MAYONASE GALLON JARS... THINGS LIKE THAT...

THEY ARE ALL OVER TEH COUNTRY  -- MEMBERSHIP IS FREE  IF......
  Membership is available to qualifying owners or operators of food businesses and non-profit organizations.  Membership is free, but to qualify, You must apply for membership and provide a valid reseller’s permit and tax-exempt certificate and proof that You are authorized to purchase for said business or organization. 

I MADE IT UNDER TAX EXEMPT...  NON PROFIT..... I CARRY THAT TAX EXEMPT CERTIFICATE IN MY WALLET AND JUST HAPPENED TO BE GOING BY THE PLACE ONE DAY SO I JOINED... 

YESTERDAY IT WAS FOR MORE OF THE CONTAINERS FOR "THE CHEF"  AS NOT EVERYONE IS BRINGING THEM BACK !!!  

AND FOR SPICES TO PUT IN AN OLD CROCK POT TO SPICE UP THIS JOINT...

I SAY OUR DOGS DO NOT SMELL--  THEY -----AND THE PLACE ---CERTAINLY DON'T SMELL LIKE POO AT ALL...  BUT EVEN WITH DAILY FLUFFY CHANGING.. WINTER IS DRAGGING ON-- AND HAVING THE CHEF HERE ON FRIDAYS CERTAINLY DOES CREATE A PLEASURABLE   AIRE ABOUT THE PLACE.    SINCE WE CAN NOT USE THE FIREPLACE WE NOW HAVE A SMALL CROCKPOT  THERE...WITH  ODD SPICES IN IT.

-----

plastic bags..... people have sent us a good supply for about a year... but i can see the end of the road for those....--as at least part of our world trys to get used to recycling...  i am told that.....a pizza box is recyclable-- but not if it has grease on it...

.there seem to be more "but-if's" than allow the process to be efficient-- i never did get the  numbers on the plastic bottles straight-- then the rules about glass-- ipswich now has  food waste  recycling-- or it would if i ever get tothe town hall to pick up the container..

all that stuff used to go in th chicken pen- and they loved it.. with few exceptions..  and tey gave us eggs now if i give i[pswich my garbage tehy will give me a bag of topsoil in the spring

i would prefer teh eggs..

----

our back fences are in terrible shape--  i never really finished putting them in properly... with gates swinigng to partition them off.

it worKs now... but with difficulty. 

the animals we have here now should be...

donkeys and goats  fed and watered in the donk cafe  

the 2 tiny ponys couold have a small outdoor hill  ----hay water in stall

and mr elvis beau would have another small hill -----hay water in stall

 the 8 backside kennels would then have room to run on the hill letting out one or two at a time...  

that  would leave /"tanners"  barn open for emergency drop offs  ( water and hay   hand carried from the kennels.) 

that means no goats in the ARENA.  I WISH SHE WOULD GET THOSE GOATS OUT OF HERE...

TEH SLURPING PONY NEEDS DENTAL SURGERY -  TO GET RID OF TEH "HAMPSTER CHEEKS WHICH ARE CLEARLY VISIBLE   HOPEFULLY THE SURGERY IS NOT HERE ...

........

  FYI-------I AM TOLD IT IS EASIER TO RENEW A PASSPORT THAN TO GET A NEW ONE..  AND TEHRE IS SOME NEW IDENTIFYING  "THING" WE WILL BE NEEDING TO DO... REQUIRIJNG A PASSPORT OR BIRTH CERTIFICATE.

feb 22 2020

FEB 21 2020

I GOT SIDETRACKED--

BASIC PROBLEM  ---WE GOT THRU THE ADI ACCREDITATION... PRIMARILY PAPERWORK

 AND ALOT OF THAT PAPERWORK WAS TRYING TO  ACCERTAIN THAT THE DOG IS TRAINED..WHICH ... IN MY OPINION.....  AND YOU ALL KNOW WHERE THAT CAN GO.

SO I AM WRITING TO THE PRES/ COMMITTEE OF ADI  WITH SUGGESTIONS.

----DIFFERENT TOPIC---

 I RODE IN JUDY'S CAR TO THE FINE ARTS BUILDING/SCHOOL AND FOUND OUT 2 THINGDS...

JUDY CAN LOOK AT HER DASHBOARD WITH IT'S LITTLE TV SCREEN PACKED WITH INFORMATION  AND 100% LOCATE ONE  PIECE OF INFORMATION ON IT.... WHILE I AM STILL IN THE TOP LEFT CORNER READING THE INDIVIDUAL WORDS ... BROWSE.. AUDIO AND WORDS LIKE THAT. SHE HAS TEH WHOLE SCREEN VISUALIZED....  ... ALL THESE YOUNG PEOPLE DO..

THIS IS A SERIOUS DISCUSSION..

I CAN SIT HERE AND CURSE THE FACT THAT THERE IS NO SOUND ON MY COMPUTER AND DECIDE TEH CAMERAS MUST BE DOWN OR YOU TUBE IS NOT WORKING OR SOME OTHER 

IMPOSSIBELE REASON WHEN SOME YOUNG KID WILL SHOW UP AND IN ONE SECOND SAY "IT IS ON MUTE"

NOW I HAVE CLICKED THAT MUTE BUTTON 1000 TIMES BEFORE, BUT WHEN THEY SAY THAT , I START AGAIN TOP LEFT  /... BROWSE... AUDIO... I DO NOT SEE OR COMPREHEND THE ENTIRE SCREEN LIKE THEY DO..

I THINK THIS IS WHY I NEVER DID WELL AT THE PIANO OR BAND...- I KNOW WHAT ALL THOSE FUNNY DRIPPLETS MEAN-- BUT BY THE TIME I GET THRU  THE FIRST  2 INCHES... EVERYONE ELSE IS 1/2 THRU THE SONG.

 YOU CAN CALL I T DYSLEXIA OR WHATEVER YOU WANT... BUT   THERE IS SOMETHINGVERY DIFFERENT IN TEH WAY I SEE  SYMBOLS ON PAPER..

ANDTHE SECONE THING .. IS   

 I AM USED TO WALKING IN BIG PLACES LIKE TEH MUSEAM OF FINE ARTS... AND HAVING PEOPLE BE AMAZED AND  PLEASENTLY SURPRISED...WITH MY DOGS...

YESTERDAY I WAS TOTALLY IGNORED... BECAUSE THEIR "DOG" IS  OUR EYORE..  OF OUR POO LITTER...WANDERING ALL OVER THE PLACE .. NO LEASH OR COLLAR.. HAPPILY GREETING SECURITY AND EVERYONE HE KNEW AT THE CAFE--- AND EVEYRYONE DID KNOW HIM'''\  HE IS HUGE--- 36 INCHES TALL-- STILL YOUNG LOOKING...  BUT HUGE.

THE ONL;Y RESPECT I COULD SQUEEZE OUT OF THE SITUATION WAS TO TELL PEOPLE BENTLEY WAS EYORES FATHER.
