Steve told me about this story, and he’s right. The next passage contains the best words to be written down since a police officer said someone was punching vegetation. Durango, CO11:08 a.m. A man on Westwood Place said his girlfriend was beating a miniature Chihuahua with a spatula. And that’s the whole story. That leaves …

Bits of Trixie goodness I forgot about.
I knew I was forgetting some things about Trixie that I wanted to say. So here are the things I forgot. I have now discovered she likes squirrels. They tempt her whenever we walk through the university campus. Always something new. When we’re playing, sometimes she pins my head down and sniffs my ear. I …
More Trixie goodness!
I think it’s time for an update on the Trixter, along with some things I’ve noticed because of her. Because of her, I end up spending considerably more time loitering around the outside of the apartment building. I’m not really loitering, I’m waiting for her to do her duty. But anyway, it means more time …
Dear Little Children in Our Building:
I used to like listening to you laugh and shriek and scream. I used to think it was pretty cool that you all had a place to play right outside your door. Now, the sound of your voices fills me with dread. Why? Because when I take Trixie to do her business, you won’t leave …
Trixie’s Brain
So this is home now? Ok. I miss my yellow lab friend, but since there are no dogs around, I guess this guy will have to do. He’s interesting. Sometimes, I sit near his chair and watch wrestling with him. He sure doesn’t like it when I try to get up close and personal. Why …
So How’s Trixie Doing Anyway?
I know there are some people who come to the blog for Trixie updates. I’ve been emailed by a few of them asking for updates on how Trixie is doing. So here’s the first of a few Trixie-related posts. I think my knee is finally completely healed. I think Trixie is thrilled to be able …
Ooo! Look at the Doggy!
God it’s nice to be home, and settling back in with the pooch. She’s so fast, and people are always startled at how fast we can motor. Somebody asked me if she had a slow button. That made me laugh, because at the time she asked, I didn’t even think we were zooming that quickly. …
What’s So Special About Dean Koontz?
Somebody told me that if I thought Stephen King was good, I should try and read Dean Koontz, and he’d be sooo much better. So I thought I’d give him a try. I’ve read 3 of his books, at least one of them unabridged, and the whole experience left me unimpressed. Reading his stuff is …
Grief is Not a Joke!
Well it looks like I have a little more time than I thought. So here’s another post. Gotta get them written down before I go to the hell computer. Somebody made me a wee bit upset yesterday, and it’s still bugging me today. I ran into an old friend I haven’t seen in years, and …
Smart Dog? Dumb Master? Dumb Dog and Master?
A Doberman Pinscher named Victoria figured out that she could turn on a stove, and after one showing of this new trick causing a minor fire, her master didn’t fix it so Victoria couldn’t get to repeat it. Victoria repeated it while her master was gone. Now her apartment is gutted. Here’s a tip for …
