RUNNING IS GOOD

If people want the best appetite suppressant surely they wil find loads of choices on the web, but they can find an even better appetite suppressant just below their belt - their legs. I know the following for a fact but I fail to follow the experts advice often enough. RUNNING IS GOOD unless you have severe arthritis then you go for what works for everyone - Walking.
Your choice is a stroll thru the park (try to only go to large parks for this), a light trot (this is where I notice the pains in my knees and ankles); to a light jog - this is where you get into a gray area - Jogging or running or walking or qualified excuse discussion? Multiple choice - I love 'em!!

Forever Looking

People are forever looking for a magic pill. Afterall won't a magic cure everything. Of the magical pills the greatest are weight loss supplements. They can be in both liquid and the all too familiar pill form and most of them are filled with the same thing - no magic and loads of empty promises. Yeah Yeah Yeah I realize that these statements are not what the manufacturer wants to read, but for my limited experience: I have not tried EVERY Pill on the market but I tried enough to understand the frustration they provide. I have head the rebuttal from makers that the reason their pill "seemed" to fail, was probably because the user failed to read and follow ALL of the instructions. The makers needs reread the start of this post, WE WANT MAGIC PILLS - NOT INSTRUCTIONS!

Free Wireless

I have mentioned in other posts, other blogs that while the desktop is a steady workhorse it is the laptop computer that gives me the greatest versatility. The downside I think is the difficulty in upgrading the machine. If I do decide and do manage to find the funds, I am immediately limited to the few components the original manufacturer offers. And that Bites Big Time! The upside that will only get better as time go on, is the ever increasing number "Free Wireless Access" signs.

Comes To Mind

Someone at work mentioned buying refurbished laptops and that really makes a whole lot of sense. After all that is what we use at work. The shell may say Dell but I have been informed by several of our IT people that many of the circuits and chips inside our laptops are from whichever supplier meets the requirements and still comes in as the lowest bidder. Have we had any problems because of this? Oh yeah.

Several of the laptops we had prior to our current models had numerous graphic "card" problems. I put the word card in quotes, because it is not a large plug in style graphic card that is replaced, but rather it is a set of chips. The chips that were upgraded to remedy the graphics problem were in several areas of the laptop. So if I were to buy such a machine, I would want to know that it had all of its bugs removed.

Someone mentions a compute and the word bug comes to mind.

Power and Beauty

It is so beautiful to see them glide through the water. For me it is a picture, no make that a sensation of power and beauty. If ever I need to express the concept of beauty watching these animals glide as they chase their food. Watching them open their gaping mouth seeking so much in life as many of us do. Recently I was looking at a picture of the mouth of a bluray and it reminded me of television show about two men lost in time. The apparatus that sent them on their journey was called a tunnel and look identical to the ray's mouth. The Time Tunnel I believe was the name of the show. Uh! What? Wrong Ray you say!!
Oh yeah, I was thinking about the Manta Ray.

g;bubu

nah nah nah

I was reviewing pics I had of the 'kids' on my VG Voyager and found Butch just about to doze off. What was my clue of Butch's impending ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZs? He sticks his tongue out...

Parents

One of the best pieces of advice I will give someone eager to know where to invest, I suggest getting term life insurance quotes from as many sources as you can. For it is term life insurance that will or at least can be a valid short term investment. Many people invest in these financial instruments as a gift to a child to help them either attend college or start a small business. One of the many, many sites I visited was www.wholesaleinsurance.net. I may spend some time soon about who setup sites such as this one. Parent companies and their parents are real eye openers. Check out who owns ABC or your local food mart.

A Sad Day in the Life of He n Me

oh how i feel for my pups whenever we need to take them into the vet's office for their annual exam. they are coddled and caressed. they are fed all sorts of treats in every flavor a dog can imagine or perhaps the imagining should be left to the owners. either way the poor unsuspecting one that is prepared for the slaughter or at least prepared for the required exam which includes that unsuspecting checking the temperature OMG how it comes to mind the times I have tried my best to escape squirming and wiggling about on manual exam tables

Insurance

Now think about the whole idea, of what value is affordable health insurance to a dog, even ones as handsome as Charles and Butch. We already know that Charles' health was comprimised when he was but a wee little pup. Charles was his on his left side with enough force to severely damage his shoulder and his hip. And he is blind in his left eye – Hell you would be too if someone struck you hard enough to disconnect your retina from the back of your eye. Oh yes, Charles has an eye and most of the parts are in about the right place, but the eyebeall is not connected to the body and to the nbrain so heal th insurance of any kind with do him little good.

Tails A Waggin

Well they were at it again. Charles also known as Chucky and Butchy also known as Butch were having a ball playing their version of golf. Golf seems like a simple enough kind of game as you would view it on the television with special rules if you cannot hit straight. The truth be told, Chuckie can hit the ball as straight down the fairway as any human but I think he enjoys hitting the ball into the ruff just for the variety of grasses and weeds to munch on. Butch on the other hand prefers to just tap the ball a few feet each time - also looking for the variety of grasses and weeds to munch on.


Well to hear them talk they have every intend in signing up for the next Myrtle beach golf tournament just as long as no one notices that they don't use standard golf clubs - nope, these pups hit the golf balls with their tails! Tails a Waggin and Good Luck Fellas!

3 Ts

I know how I ramble on in these posts - well at least I am good at something in life ibcluding dreaming non Pup related dreams. One such example was when I dreamt about being a Tacoma car accident lawyer. Now that was a funky sort of dream. Considering how may Tacoma's there are in the real world and how many more there are currently in the dream worlds I visit, it has been a dream liver's and creator's lifetime fantasy. Most lawyers are hated because only the Truth is told in the cases these lawyers are seen in. Of course one might become suspisous of who's truth and which extent of a truth is used. But really now how can you blame a person whose job it is to open the truth to the world so the what is obvious is revealed. Okay, so what were the topics??

Health Care

It would be nice if everyone had some sort of insurance, good or bad.  It would be even nicer if the government didn't go into debt to provide it.  Still, formal health care system or not, the tax payers are paying for indigent and uninsured workers to get emergency health care.  It would be nice if everyone with a job could have something like Blue Cross NC, but the fact is, that they don't.  Small businesses can't afford to offer a health plan and some big businesses, like hotels, and restaurant chains make sure that their hourly employees never quite get to the 40 hours per week needed to qualify for the health care they offer regular, salaried employees.

Till some kind of plan comes into play, we'll be paying for expensive emergency room visits instead of cheaper, routine examinations that would make the emergency rooms clear for what they're really meant for... emergencies.

Dad It's Hot Out Here

and Mom usually let's us stay inside. Ya - but you have torn up too much stuff in these last few days.

true but hard to read thru the tears

• We Do Not "Own" Our Pets,
•  
• For It Is They and They Alone Who "Lay Claim" To Each One of Us 
•  
• To Share... Their Spirit,  Their Energy,  and  Their Purpose...With Us

• For God's Given Duration!

The comment above often makes me wonder if we put da Brain to rest too early - most thoughts about da Brain bring me to tears - no other pup does that - just da Brain - and so very many people find his memory just as heart wrenching - I know - I have asked- and been told not to ask!

 

I'll need to re-visit this - later after I mop up my tears -they cause such a mess on my desk!

We'll See If He Reads My Blogs

I wrote what I thot they wanted unfortunately I wrote the report in a form most useful to me. That translates to what's simple and what the final result is. No I do not always succumb to the KISS theory, but I thought that they would fare best in a meeting with as little paperwork as possible, especially if that small amount of paper included an immense amount of information. So after a few snide comments from them, I wrote a report that explained reality in a lengthy statement. That statement, in an itsy bitsy font, was crammed into 1 cell - albeit that that information was repeated in ninety percent of the report - no shortcuts here.
Then I ran a standardized report that proved what I had written in the 1st report was TRUE and was in a format they had seen many times before. My deadline, like most deadlines was the next working day so I did ever so much more work than I planned. Oh did I mention that there was a weekend between this day and that. That was the good news. The bad news was that I spent six hours re-creating report one in report three's format.
What does this have to do with this blog's title - nothing.
