our weekly total of "3 dog patters" is well over the goal of 100 per week.... and it is only thurs. we had 80 ish on monday in peabody
then ( apparently ) 46 in ipswich yesterday. with a meeting today in rowley council on aging.... we might even get to 200 for teh week....
there is certainly a need.. take any group of bored, grim faced people who for one reason or another have been deposited in the care of adequately trained but terribly overworked nursing staff and enter my 3 dogs-- smiles break out and people talk to each other...
by some federal law, i am sure,,,, well i'm not all that sure.... but i bet each one of these places has a board of directors who insist in seeing a schedule of activities for these poor people who can often be seen sitting stonefaced in front of a bingo board...
every place we go to there seems to be one person called "activities director" who's job it is to fill up this schedule of activities to keep the board happy........ how much bingo can they all play????? it sounds like such a simple job-- and it is ... for about two weeks- then the poor director hits the wall and is out of ideas... so when our goofey bunch of dogs come thru the door, they are thrilled- all they have to do is just walk around..... keeping all 4 feet on the floor......and every one is thrilled.-----comments i hear ??? "great i can talk about the dogs for the next week......" hey--- there is a whole world of people in desparate need.. and.. there sits the BLANK SCREEN OF THE very stupid SMART TV-- THERE IS ONE IN EVERY PLACE WE GO. TO....AND IF JUDY ASKS TO TURN IT ON... THERE IS A GREAT FLURRY OF ACTIVITY AS EVERYON E SCRAMBLES TO TRY AND FIND THE REMOTE... PURE COMEDY-- IF IT WASN'T SO PATHETIC,
THE WHOLE PERFORMANCE PUTS THE SIENFIELD SHOW TO SHAME. IT IS REPLICATED OVER AND OVER AGAIN.. ALMOST WORD FOR WORD--" THERE IS A BOX OF THOSE IN THE CLOSET"
OK.. SO ALL OF THE 1400 PEOPLE WHO READ THIS FOOL THING DAILY.... ONE OF YOU MUST KNOW A GENIUS WHO CAN MAKE A GISMO.... TO TURN ON/OFF TEH SMART TV -- IT SHOULD ONLY GO TO THE EXPLORE CAMERAS---- WHERE YOU HAVE ONLY 2 KNOBS......FIRST TO CHOOSE BETWEEN ALL THOSE CAMERAS-- THE ONLY OTHER ADJUSTMENT IS A LOUD TO QUIET KNOB.
AND IT SHOULD BE ON A WIRE TO THE USBXXX PLUG. NOT REMOTE !!
EVEN MAKE A FAKE/ MODEL VERSION FOR ME TO TRY AND USE TO MY BEST ADVANTAGE...
MY DREAM... SPIN THE WHEEL TO CHOOSE BETWEEN THE BEARS, BIRDS OR BEEHIVES
SOMEBODY.... COME ON !!!
