P.S. “scooterpants”? That’s goin’ right into the screen-name pantheon…

Thanks, Theo. marie_n, I’m with you. 50 acres, many dogs, cat-a-plenty, a llama, vicuna or aplaca, and of course, my giraffe.

Now, my son the biologist tells me that giraffes are mean sons of guns. Maybe they are just misunderstood, “Katrina’s Home for Misunderstood Giraffes” sounds about right. marie_n, come visit anytime, Theo, you have your perfect office, I have my “Home for Misunderstood Giraffes”, to each his or her own. You can come visit too, there will be a guest house, way up in a tree so you can talk with the giraffe.

omg bunches of squirming soon to be yodeling their little wrinkly faces off basenji pupples. i’d quit my job right now if i could be so lucky to have that sort of lifestyle. i sent those pictures to my boyfriend and asked if we could have puppies like that (not myself having the puppies, holy creepies) and he replied “that’d be a huge pet fee for the apartment.” i know deep down inside he’d love to have that many, although the fee is $200 a head for animals. my solution is just getting a farm for puppies to roam and romp on. oh the glee! i’d never leave my puppy farm.

OMG! Nuuuuu Basenji puppehs! /me makes sign of the cross

Yes, they do appear cute but whatever you do, don’t get a Basenji! They’re cat/dogs and will destroy your house and your heart! Mine ate my window sills from the inside.

LOL. OK, if Karl Rove had been a Basenji, I’d've liked him better. It’s true.

OK, Theo, my fellow peep, and everyone else too of course, I just read the 31-page Basenji book by Donna Falk, and have come to the conclusion that the deeeep forehead wrinkles come from plotting. Basenjis plot. That could certainly account for it. I’m not too sure what your message meant Theo, but now that I have successfully identified the verb, I feel better. They are very intelligent, and, as aforementioned, plot.

I love her facial expression…a total “I think I’m trapped now”.

well.
i sat in my driveway , in the dirt for an hour this morning, and still no puppies.

what’s her secret?

I’m getting some great job ideas here peeps (recently lost my job). Something involving piles of puppies or kittens OR puppies AND kittens would be just about right.
