Most of the day, Sparky didn’t know what was going on. Rusty wasn’t here, but we also weren’t having fun. It was worse than that. All of his favorite stuff was gone, so he spent the day in dreadful contemplation.
This morning, I took Rusty to the Cleveland APL. It’s off of West 14th, so I told him we were going to Tremont. Dogs like the sound of that.
Rusty is a great catch. He is three years old, has no nuts and good teeth. That’s the golden triad of appealing dog attributes.
Rusty is going to the Cleveland APL tomorrow morning. This is our typical breakfast and dinner, and I didn’t want to forget it.
It can take several weeks to get an appointment to bring in a dog, but we got a slot two days after the call. It’s better to get it over with. Rusty is a very good dog. I hate to give up on him, but It’s best for Sparky, and for me, and I hope it works out for Rusty.
We are working on something to make Rusty an appealing dog to adopt.
Until today, Sparky was good at every task that pays off with a treat. He can’t hope to compete on this one.
Valerie Perrine passed away today at 82 years old. That’s her on the left. The other woman is Caitlyn Jenner1.
Valerie was a minor league hottie, but was in some memorable movies like Superman and Slaughterhouse Five. She did topless scenes, which we liked, but could look really rough when she didn’t put in the effort.
One role she had was in a series that I had only heard of recently. It came out in the 1980’s. It’s called, Faerie Tale Theatre. The name and production values look like soft-core porn parody, but the actors are A-listers. Valerie Perrine appears with Billy Crystal and Jeff Goldblum.
After my nap, Sparky wanted to get a little more sleep.
Trump made a Pearl Harbor joke in front Japan’s prime minister and press. The Japanese will view that interaction much differently than Americans do. This post on X may offer some insight.
Do you truly understand what Japan just gained? As a Japanese citizen, I’m telling you—this moment changed history.
Trump’s Pearl Harbor joke wasn’t an insult. It was the key that finally unlocked something buried deep in the Japanese soul.
Microsoft says it is fixing Windows 11, but users have heard this before
Instead of bragging about shiny new features or pushing more AI into everything, the company [Microsoft] is basically saying, “we hear you,” and trying to clean up the mess that Windows 11 has become in some areas.
Too late.
