A doctor on TV said that in order to have inner peace in our lives this time of year, we should always finish things that we start. Since we all could use more calm in our lives, I looked around my house to find things I'd started & hadn't finished. I finished a bottle of Crown Royal, a bottle of Bim Beam, a bodle of Baileys, a butle of wum, tha mainder of Valiuminun scriptins, an a boxa choclutz. Yu has no idr how fablus I feel rite now. Sned this to all ur frenz who need inner piss. An telum u luvum.

Had a horse hit by a semi and ended up dead in the median. Summertime. By 10 am, the horse was swelling up. Got two calls there was a horse delivering a foal in the median. No, he ain't having a foal. I'm sure.

Very sorry to say that Two Ponies passed away September 28th. To say he led an interesting life would be an understatement. Two Ponies Obituary He will be missed.

Pretty damn accurate. My bosses terminated two sergeants at the same time yesterday. Guess they feel good about keeping the peons in line..

Chicken Stew 1 chicken 2 cups onions, chopped 7 cups water 4c. canned tomatoes 4 cups potatoes, peeled and diced 3 T sugar 2 c. frozen or canned whole kernel corn 2 T butter 5 tsp salt 2 tsp pepper Cook chicken until done in water. Remove chicken from broth and discard skin. Separate meat from bones and shred meat. Dip off as much fat from the broth as possible. Simmer potatoes in 1 cup of broth in covered saucepan until done, do not drain. Mash potatoes slightly, keeping them lumpy. Add corn, onions, tomatoes, sugar, salt, and pepper to broth. Cover and simmer for 20 minutes. Add potatoes and chicken and simmer slowly with lid off for at least 45 minutes. Right before serving, stir in butter and let it melt. Best if made a day ahead and reheated to serve. I make this three or four times a year. It never fails to be good.

Our latest. Now called Trudy, she was tentatively named Fleeta Rae by the rescue agency. Her foster called her "Fruit Loop". Of undetermined age, she's a cross between a long haired Dachshund and a Yorkshire Terrier. Somewhere in the background, she came up with a lower jawbone degeneration, resulting in a sever underbite and a protruding tongue. She's an absolute doll, and loves to play and snuggle.

Most serial killers started with animal abuse.

So, after being a one dog family for a couple of years, we decided it was time to upgrade. A few nights on the interwebs, and we located this sweet girl about a hundred miles away. She's five or six, and had a rough life up until now. She was part of a pet hoarding situation, and hasn't had much attention until now. But her sweet disposition and loving manner won our hearts, and now Trudy is part of our family. She's a Dachshund and Yorkshire Terrier mix, and weighs about six pounds.
