The Right Scoop
Whoops, me thinks another beer summit is in the making. This officer apparently didn't receive the "do not ticket Obama supporters" memo.

oh good grief.... what was that I just heard? There's no such thing as a slippery slope?
sigh
Hey, this looks interesting...
The Leon Levy Dead Sea Scrolls Digital Library
I found this while looking at the Google blog. Evidently Google had a lot to do with it. But now we can read the high-resolution images of the scrolls online.
(If we could read ancient Hebrew, that is.)
Not that don't already love our veterans and our marines but this father and retired Marine shows the world how it's done!

You ought to try living with a deaf dog. My daughter's dog is deaf. In the morning you have to go wake her up and wave her bowl full of food in front of her.
She does (sort of) understand sign language but she has to be awake first. She's smart enough not to eat Christmas lights though, unless they're made out of meat. ;-)
If this took place in England, I only wish that the British National Health Service was as effective with real people as the vets were with this dog! Maybe it's healthier to be a dog in England, rather than a person, who get treated like dogs by the National Health Care system.
Many many Brits are saying exactly the same!
Now this dog was treated at the PDSA - which is a charity which treats pets of people who are pensioners, or on low income, and who can't afford the fees of our 'normal' vets.
They've gor shops where you can buy second-hand stuff, from clothes to bric-a-brac, and many of us prefer to donate to them rather than the lefti, ecofascist 'charities' like OXFAM.
You know whats really funny?
I didnt catch the "light snack" part of the post until just now. Duh oh.
Don't know if y'all can see this, but this is SO incredibly precious. https://www.facebook.com/#!/photo.php?v=10152353059565534&set=vb.695930533&type=2&theater
Aww!
Thanks - that was amazing, what sweet child, what magnificent dog!
Am going to give a hug to my housewolf now ..
Give your housewolf a hug for me too mum. I don't have my pup anymore to hug and my kitty won't let me hug her ;-)
Thanks mum. Yes, God will provide us with another when He knows the time is right. :-) All of our pets have either found us by wandering down the road, following us home, or been on the side of the road as in the case of our Kitty Miss Jane Deere.
I will - cats only allow hugs when they want them, I know ...
Sorry you haven't got a pup any more - one will surely turn up in your life again at some point!
Without furry people to share our lives with, this world would be a much darker, colder, inhospitable place to live. They bring so much joy and love into our lives I'm convinced they are really Angels in disguise. :-)
1938 Time Person of the Year - Adolf Hitler. What came next? Gun prohibition and millions exterminated.

2012 Time Person of the Year - Barky Boy. What came next? Attempted gun prohibition
Well, I for one, am going out in my yard to practice goose stepping...
Step1: Find a goose..
Step2: Try to get it to stand still so I can step over him... G'dang it, the darn goose bit me again! Stand still you little ba... goose! I just want to step over... OUCH!!! (runs back indoors... Goose stands at door glaring in daring me to try come out and do that again!) :-)
To which part??? Barky, Hitler? Gun prohibition? [didn't want to post that Kristallnacht was 2 nights later and then genocide began right on the heals.]
Yes.
We've been doing our part to keep the economy going since it crashed…..and burned.
(probably more than our part)
:-0
We are being tested and will emerge much stronger than we can imagine! Here's one bennie, gun and ammos sales are stimulating the economy :)
The huge coincidence, you posted.
I am still aghast over our election results….so I am treading water…barely.
Sweet pup. I had to put mine to sleep the night before last. I'm glad this one will live to see another day.
Thank you for your kindnesses, everyone. He is missed, but it was the least I could do for someone who never asked me for anything and gave me his all.
Oh Bunjy - hugs and more hugs to you.
This is so hard, it is heartbreaking even though we all know that this is the last duty we owe our beloved companions. My heart goes out to you - I've been there, and I pray this poem about the Rainbow Bridge may help you somewhat:
My condolences on the loss of a fuzzy child. You'll meet again at Rainbow Bridge, my Friend.
Aw! So sorry Bunjy. :-( God Bless and give you peace knowing your furbaby is running and playing now. xxooxo

Lord I wish they could all come home.
It's lovely how others work to give a kid such surprise!
They will all come home, they are needed.
Thanks for the link, ABiC!

Any dog owner knows exactly how that poor bloke felt!
I can soooo relate.
….He's probably still running….
Our dogs ran off the other day…Chasing a chipmunk.
We were telling that to an "dog trainer" and she said, well, did you call them?
My husband said- are you kidding? We were outside, in front of our house- with open road and trees. She said you should have called them and then should have turned around and come right back……If they didn't they dont respect you, she said.
We have still been laughing about that. Unless we were holding a freshing BBQed chicken in our arms- our dogs probably wouldnt even turn around when we call them if they run away outside.
Thats just great. Our 11 pound dogs dont respect us.
Well did you call them???? That is hilarious, only a trainer would say that. ha ha ha
I did trick my male Lab one time. He got loose and was a good couple of acres away so it's a good thing dogs have good hearing. Anyway I kept yelling how good my other dog was being and what a good girl she was and I was going to give her a treat. Of course she was still in the house. It only took a couple of minutes of screaming this over and over and he came running back to the house. This was one time I was happy he was jealous about me giving the other dogs attention or treats.
Yes I did give him a treat even though I was hoarse and I was sure my stomach was never going back in it's proper place.
Thats awesome. I love it!!!!!
I've done similar when one will come running in, and the other is lolly gagging outside, looking at every rock, tree stump, etc….and its freezing out. ….Joy is such a good girl. Im going to get her some chicken!!!! The other one, just looks up at me - Like whatever.
Oh! I so needed that mum! I think they could hear me laughing down by the highway just now... the highway being 2 country miles away. That killed me!! Thank you!!!
It was all over the place here in the UK, there's not been a dry eye amongst dog owners who watched this. We've all been there, in one for or another!
