I suspect a brannigan was involved.

It is raining lightly on and off here, too-

Charlie has been tattled on
And according to the facts
He’s guilty of hiding income
From rentals to income tax

From a Carribean luxury villa
To apartments in New York’s Queens
He’s been wheeling and dealing
To live well beyond his means

I hope that sleazy, crooked Charlie
Can’t bribe away this tangle-
And the hearing becomes a brannigan
Instead of just a minor “wrangle”

The little sprinkles are keeping the temperature below 90 and the breeze blowing-I won’t complain.

Time to go light the grill and steam some cauliflower-I’ve got a little ribeye steak in the freezer I’m going to grill. I had planned to thaw and grill some sand trout that my neighbor’s husband caught (in the still clean bay off Corpus Christi) and she gave me, but I’ve eaten a lot of fish and chicken lately and I’m jonesin for beef-back later...

WFTD kudos to Charlie Rangel, Timmy Geithner, Tom Daschole, and now -- John F'n Kerry for reminding us all of that one eternal truth about liberals:

Democrats love to levy taxes, but they just don't like payin 'em.

John F’in Kerry claims he is keeping the yacht there for maintenance and charter, not tax savings-yeah, right...

So, someone called Glenn Beck's red phone and I have to hear about it on the streets?

Also, look what's living under my kitchen table:

Photobucket

The guinea pigs had an interesting reaction to this new creature:

The cats? They are in their safe place upstairs waiting this new, revolting development out.

That cutie looks like a Sheltie-or is he/she another type of Collie?

That’s a Sheltie, all right. Shetland Sheepdog. Still adjusting to life here and, as I said, living under the kitchen table.

Did you get him/her from a local breeder, and how old is the darling?

My next door neighbor and Blondie the dyke have a tan and white female Sheltie that is my Husky’s favorite playmate of nearly seven years-they are working out of state until August-September and have her with them, so Husky girl has to play with another neighbor’s Chocolate Lab till then.

“The red phone”

I think it was Thursday, and it wasn’t the WH-Beck had been holding up the phone to illustrate a point, and the phone # on the bottom of it was apparently visible to some sharp eyed viewer here in Texas who called it to rant. So now, Beck has to get a new phone #-he told the WH on the show not to call that old number, he would give them the new one when he got it.

Yes, a local breeder. 8 months old, male. We’ve named him River Blue.

He’s still warming up to us, and I can see it will take a while. They are a naturally very shy breed. Having the smell (and sight) of cats in the house is I’m sure another factor in him wanting to stay under the table where he is safe.

The one cat is coming down to look around a bit. They stood about 10 feet apart, one in one room, the other another and looked at each other. But no contact yet.

Kaye Cowher, RIP

Kaye Cowher died Friday after losing her battle with skin cancer. She was 54.

Pittsburgh football fans knew her as the wife of former Steelers coach Bill Cowher.

But she was also a successful athlete in her own right, playing in the former Women’s Professional Basketball League in the late 1970s and early 1980s, and at North Carolina State University before that.

Now I know what Led Zeppelin was singing about when the lyric goes “ain’t no companion like a blue-eyed merle.”

This dog has one blue eye and one brown.

would he have had contact with cats at the breeders place? bc loosh was clueless about cats. Saw one in the parking lot at the vet and was all prepared to come off and do a sniff and greet and was alarmed by the hissing and bared claw reaction he got in return. i don’t know that cat v. dog is innate, i think it might be learned behavior.
