The Cat That Filled the Hole in Our Hearts
MsG, thank you so much for sharing this with us. The pain is unrelenting, and the platitudes can carry one just so far. I have been blessed with so many unique 4 legged mates, both feline and canine, and each holds their own special place in my heart. The most recent loss was our beloved Lucy, a rescue girl who adopted me, from the get-go. She too, knew inherently what was happening that dark Sunday morning last year when we went on our final ride together. She refused to leave the car and enter the vet's office, so we had to perform the task outside. I bawled like an infant as she slipped away. Such a sweet lady. Be well. You too, Surf puppy.....I'm proud of you! http://www.flickr.com/photos/jbigrig/5413911003/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/jbigrig/5414520800/— February 3, 2011 3:22 p.m.

Driver Threatens Driver with Putter
Wait.....here's the scenario: Vehicle #1 is a convertible with the top down, operator of vehicle #2 grabs a driver from the bag in the back seat of vehicle #1 and threatens operator #1 with it. Just then, the traffic ahead of #1 clears and #1 takes off. Headline reads: "Driver threatens driver with own driver, then driver putts out, losing both drivers." Next?— January 31, 2011 1:28 p.m.
Escondido Citizen Speaks Out Against Asociación de Charros
"6.The problem with the animal rights fanatics like Eric Mills is that he wants to treat animals better then(sic)people. According to Mills(sic)friend, Steve Hindi, he is spending Bob Barkers (sic) millions to by (sic) spy toys to protect pigeons. Think about how many starving children could be helped with that money. Think of what St,(sic) Jude could do with it. As far as cherry picking, for years, we have offered Mills and the other right (?) fanatics the charro challenge (Taco Bell plug?). Lets (sic) do a scientific study of charreada, rodeo, steeple chase, cross country the racing (huh?). Lets (sic) see if there are repeated serious injuries. For years, they refuse. That is because they know what they are saying is just not true. Now watch this video about what Mills calls horse tripping" This guy's a lawyer? Oh, the horror.— January 31, 2011 5:57 a.m.

San Diego's antismoking law – cause of fires and second-hand smoke
"I have smoked for 40 years. I am very healthy, thank you," .....seen a pic of your lungs lately? "My freezer is empty, in the exception of ice cubes." Sure it is...— January 28, 2011 3:11 p.m.
Jerry Brown Wants to Rein in Redevelopment Scams
" Much like the talk of “Super Bowls” being such a revenue engine for the city. It’s a one day party that might have people staying three days to a week, once every 7 to 10 years." And then the NFL a.k.a.No Free Lunch, "threatens" the owners (voters) with the loss of ANY future bonanzas (haha), unless a new stadium is built. In many circles, this is known as extortion.— January 28, 2011 9:40 a.m.

San Diego's antismoking law – cause of fires and second-hand smoke
MsG (and Surfpuppy): I would never suggest that (either of) you could be accused of intolerance. To the contrary, your posts consistently demonstrate that. I agree with you about your vehicle, and I would never let anyone smoke in my wife's car for the same reasons. I should clarify that I drive an older one ton truck. And not very often these days since I work from home and put in twelve hour days. In fact, the last time the situation presented itself was three years ago when my best friend visited from Texas. I gave him the truck to use while he was here and asked him to keep the window open when he smoked and to use an ashtray other than the one in the vehicle. There was no residual odor in it after he went home.— January 23, 2011 4:14 a.m.
San Diego's antismoking law – cause of fires and second-hand smoke
Oops...in the previous, post, the line " I even sat in the smoking sections (that explains the "Duh" in my handle) because I found the people more interesting" should have mentioned that I was referring to airline flights, when one could still request to be seated in the smoking or non sections. By the way, have you noticed how wafting cig smoke ALWAYS finds its way to the ex or non-smokers? LOL....— January 22, 2011 2:16 p.m.
